Sunlight is the best disinfectant, lad.
- drngdds 4y agoThis is a catchphrase, not a thing that's actually true.

- spot 4y agoSunlight allows us to look (and kills bacteria). Unbanning accounts gives them a megaphone. Totally different.
- lovich 4y agoThat makes so much sense as to why the OG nazis were only stopped once they ended their long standing stance of keeping their rhetoric on the undermensch hidden from the world
- MrMan 4y agodefinitely a statement that is false
- monksy 4y agoThat's the case if they aren't a group. Propaganda bots, state sponosored propoganda (look at the Chinese officals on covid.. you'll need to see the archives for that.. they'll directly claim that covid is the fault of the US Navy), professional troll army, state sponsored stalking groups, and extremist groups have been running rampant and in the open on twitter. (They have also been on Hacker News, Reddit, and Facebook)
- judahmeek 4y agoNo, giving idiots equal voice reduces their shame & public shaming is likely the highest mitigating pressure against idiocy. It obviously isn't anywhere near as effective as we would like, but I can't think of any legal tactic that actually works better.
