@aral nuanced understanding is very valid but does NOT expose a flaw in the comic or its message. You simply want another message.

@FromWayDowntown I like what the comic is saying re the issue it was inspired by. I also like the greater context that the article provides. -
@aral Way to start the week. Have a productive one. ;) -
@FromWayDowntown You too :)

@aral great article i agree. But the 1st amendment is specifically referencing the gov. So comic is correct technically, maybe not morally.Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

@aral@ikostar@smarimc@ninapaley What, Twitter "disappears" some trending topics - is this true? -
@ivortymchak@aral@smarimc@ninapaley I've heard it said... a lot - never seen them admit to it though. -
@ikostar@ivortymchak@aral@ninapaley I've heard denial. And I've seen what chaotic systems can do. Dunno either way. -
@smarimc@ikostar@aral@ninapaley The article made it sound as if the deletion had definitely taken place. Just rumour then? -
@ivortymchak@smarimc@aral@ninapaley Not so much 'rumour' as an accusation made whenever something doesn't get "enough" attention :) -
@ikostar@ivortymchak@aral@ninapaley ... yeah, that's the problem. A lot of it is people overestimating their topic's worth.
