If you really want to embrace this "world leaders tweets are important public record, therefore immune to the TOS" policy, represent it in your platform with a "verified world leaders" badge.
-
"Verified world leader" tweets must be undeletable.
-
Nobody should be Blocked from seeing these tweets.
-
Or from replying to them.
-
Of course, you're right. That logically follows from "We believe in freedom of expression and in speaking truth to power.”

Jesus Christ, how do you not get what I'm saying? Read Jack's article before you tweet asinine things at me. FFS.

Read this. Do you understand the cognitive dissonance I'm referring to here?https://twitter.com/ParkerMolloy/status/949390540847665152 …

I'm guessing that here Jack is referring to *them* (Twitter) not blocking an individual from tweeting within guidelines, but still allows individual accounts to block others per their own wishes. Or am I reading it wrong?
-
"not blocking an individual from tweeting within guidelines." <— NO. Jack's statement is about saying that because he's the president, Trump can tweet OUTSIDE those guidelines. This really isn't that hard to comprehend.
-
Alright. I comprehend it now. Thanks.

Okay, but if a tweet by one of these "political figures" causes a nuclear war, that's on you.
