Contemporary social media is not a "public square."
Weaponized speech is real, and "more speech" is zero defense against it.
Content moderation is a hard problem, in multiple dimensions, and blundering erratically from rookie mistake into rookie mistake serves by design or by accident mostly to enable and empower the worst exploitation, and the worst voices.
The pretense that there is some design and genius behind pathetic Dunning-Kruger narcissism and cognitive errors and neurological deficits has expired.
How's that anagram go, "a man, no plan, root canal: painful yawn"?
