I didn't say that. Twitter's actions are self-interested, but not morally driven. They're not necessarily even rational in any long term way.

- kcplate 5y ago>> Twitter has had the ability to algorithmically filter white supremacists for years, but they haven't enabled it because GOP politicians are white supremacists. You definitely seem to be implying that here. If all components of what you say are true…who is the only group that benefits? Perhaps I read it wrong.
- MengerSponge 5y agoTwitter isn't actively promoting the GOP's best interests, but they also haven't acted as critically as they should.
- kcplate 5y agoI think you can definitely make that case for both the Dems and the GOP.
- kcplate 5y agoAnd to perhaps better refine that comment. I think that if you are going to engage in any form of censorship as a platform, you simply need to be consistent to the TOS you are operating under. I don’t think Twitter is consistent and tends to overlook TOS violations when it involves entities whose politics they will agree with.
