The site had its problems and employees made mistakes. The "twitter files" revealed something mundane and human behind the scenes: multiple people working on difficult moderation problems and trying to solve them as best they could. There was at least an attempt to do the right thing. That's gone out the window.
- lbeltrame 4y agoI don't agree: there were so-called respectable (because no one saw them as loons, nor sociopaths) people spreading lies and misinformation to fuel panic and subsequent engagement, without any sanction. Not the former POTUS, nor the people quoted in the Twitter Files. I'm talking about professional fear-mongers like Dr.Eric Feigl-Ding. Personally I wouldn't want a removal of said posts (nor of the others), but the dissonance, at least with these people, was great.
