Posted April 30, 2022 Jack Dorsey is CONFUSING ME. He seems to know that censorship was a huge mistake but somehow cannot explain what/who imposed the censorship. Hearing him speak, he always seemed very conscious, fair, and balanced... but then the actions of Twitter rarely reflected his vision, why is this? On banning Trump "right for the company, wrong generally" ?? On Hunter Biden's Laptop Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Twitter is a team effort, not one man's will. And the way you learn to build and run a new platform like Twitter is by making mistakes and learning from them. Nobody is educated on how to build online platforms. It has to be invented on the fly. I've made some mistakes running this forum. Then I learn from my mistakes and make modifications for the future. Nobody taught me how to run a forum, I had to teach it to myself through trail and error. There is no college class called: How To Manage An Online Spiritual Forum. And if there were, someone like me would have to teach it based on years of personal mistakes. Knowledge is hard-won. You are God. You are Truth. You are Love. You are Infinity.

Posted May 11, 2022 I still don't get why Dorsey now thinks that permanently banning Trump from Twitter was a mistake. People get permanently banned from various kinds of platforms all the time whenever a moderator or administrator deems it fit. I got banned for life several years ago from another forum I was on because the mods and admins on that forum thought that I became an "infectious virus" for whining too much, even though the people running the site never explicitly stated beforehand that excessive complaining was not allowed. Trump already violated Twitter's rules a number of times before his account got permanently suspended. Virtually every single post he made on twitter for many years were all incredibly toxic and profoundly dangerous for the entire country, if not for the entire world. So, why are people like Dorsey and Musk even seriously considering lifting Trump's perma-ban from twitter? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted May 12, 2022 These Silicon Valley billionaires have fallen in love with the fantasy of libertarianism. All the crypto hype plays right into that, creating the perfect mind-virus. You are God. You are Truth. You are Love. You are Infinity. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well, I wonder if Musk will realize the legal implications of only having extremely limited moderation for a platform like Twitter. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted May 13, 2022 Does Musk realize how emboldened Trump will be once he knows there is no chance for bans?? It's fucking insane. It's like telling a bank robber you won't be enforcing security any more after you catch him robbing you. You are God. You are Truth. You are Love. You are Infinity.

This will only hasten Trump's fall. If Trump is not careful he will be given enough rope to hang himself. You are God. You are Truth. You are Love. You are Infinity.

This may really turn out to be another shitshow of epic proportions...... Edited May 13, 2022 by Hardkill Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

At least that is what they are discussing right now. We'll see. Ooo Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
