Mike Solana on Twitter: "a small handful of tech executives are currently writing the rules of public discourse for hundreds of millions of people, but separate even from the question of whether or not that is ok... we at least need to know what the rules are."

  the secret is that there are no firm rules. the ToS forbids all forms of communication, and they decide at will who to enforce that on

  The rule is, for the tech executives: "be risk adverse, don't allow anything that might tempt state regulation." That's it, that's the rule. The underlying heuristic that decides what gets squashed and what doesn't. Even that rule is imperfectly and unevenly applied.

  It would seem to be that you're allowed to publicly hate Jews if you're non-white, and not if you aren't.

  The rules are: they know it when they see it. How could it ever be otherwise?

  When you are ruled by kings, it matters a great deal whether it’s a feudal society or a constitutional monarchy.

  They took the tweet down as if that’s enough. I was a fan but I think Dorsey should lose his job. Ridiculous that people like Jack more than Zuck.
