I think you all should focus on constantly reminding people to not peg their own humanity to the language of others, in any situation.
There’s no way for @TwitterSafety to actually accomplish this in a reasonable way that won’t immediately devolve to full-on thought policing.

But I respect the fact that you’re searching for a solution.

"focus on constantly reminding people to not peg their own humanity to the language of others," Best solution I have read in the responses thus far Jed.

ALL groups should be treated the same. Why is Antifa still on twitter?

Gee I tagged you and twitter on an account this am. Nothing. I reported it. Nothing. I reported the hate filled tweet. Nothing. But ok. How about stop targeting conservatives and look at the liberals. Their hate, calls to violence, etc??

Hey
@jack,@TwitterSupport does THIS count as “hateful conduct and dehumanizing language”? Asking for 62 million friends.pic.twitter.com/xFLxK79Rid

Holy crap! I’m no fan of any of those men, but that tweet is going WAAAAAAAAY too far.

And he’s a college professor...

One policy for policing a huge platform may be impossible. In law, the anglosphere overcame similar issues by developing the system of common law, which acknowledges that one can't make a one-time fool-proof batch of guidelines, instead preferring context and continual guidance.

It may be a conceit of our tech brains to think there is a solution that will please all good actors and stop all bad. I'd rather Twitter err on the side of what makes a platform great, which is usually free(r) speech, fewer bans, fewer dictates, etc.

Maybe err on the side of free speech for a change?

In other words, Twitter is experimenting with new ways to ban, block and censor

Is this what happened here? This is amazing you would do this. Very dangerous to free speech in this country.https://twitter.com/millerita/status/1043655517095256064?s=21 …

"Real-world harm" comes from censorship. Individualism and freedom can be uncomfortable, but they are the foundation of humanity's best future.

Anybody else sick of going on Twitter one day to see a normal amount of responses, retweets, and likes and then the next day not a single response, like or retweet? Anybody else sick of Jack Dorsey & Twitter engineers being control freaks with their algorithms?
