    Journalists railing against Twitter for not regulating speech stringently enough are like classroom snitches. They'll throw a tantrum until Teacher enforces "the rules." They're really into rules. Hall monitors with a byline

        The only recourse, as Freddie (presciently) suggests, is to simply opt out of this endless cycle. Stop telling on each other, even in situations where it might provide a brief hit of emotional satisfaction. Because it will never end. The only thing it *will* end is our sanity

        A journalist job is to investigate not advocate. The Media has a combination of activists and “ex” intelligence agents masquerading as journalists.

        They are reporters which are quite different to a journalist.

        They are protesting the inequality and the unfair adjudicaation policies of @jack @twitter indiscriminately puts people in time out without explanation or opportunity for appeal. Hate speech used to incite violence is not a protected right

        Let’s be frank. We are in an era of submission to authority. Many in the left/right spectrum have simply submitted to top-down rule, private and public. They are in the cockpit with the nose pointed down.

        But they aren’t really into rules. They are into rules for only those they perceive as the enemy.

        This is a problem with all mainstream social networking systems like Twitter or Facebook. Better technology exists (e.g. I also use @joindiaspora). But now we run into network effect problems. You won't find Trump or Jones using Diaspora.

        As if twitter didn't heavily censor discourse on their platform already. Try use the search function for finding any of my tweets! You won't find any as long as I'm still #ShadowBanned. This one started on August 6th, so I expect it to last until about August 16th.

        And then there are those journalists that throw their own tantrum unless others embrace their byline.
