Social media needs governance.
Twitter, now bought by Elon musk who vows to destroy "woke mind virus" which he claims is a democratic party thing [1], is too consequential.

- curtisblaine 2y agoDid it need governance when it used to lean heavily left?
- slau 2y agoYes of course. The issue here is not left vs right. The issue is “man-child thinks messing with politics and free elections is funny, and that he’s entitled to it because he bought a plot of land on the internet.”
- nothrowaways 2y agoTrue.

- nothrowaways 2y agoYes of course. We had similar discussions on HN before too.
- jfengel 2y agoI actually feel the opposite. I supported Twitter banning Trump -- a decision made following its own stated rules. I support Musk fucking with the political process with his purely partisan decisions at odds with his stated rules. It's his web site. He paid handsomely for it. If he wants it to be TruthSocial, he should have it. And anybody with a lick of decency will avoid it.
