      For conservatives, the idea that Twitter is waging some covert ideological crusade to silence them is comforting in its simplicity. But tech companies want conservatives' business just as much as anybody's. Having a persecution complex does nothing to identify the actual problem

      I don't have an easy tweet-sized answer for what "the actual problem" is, but a Big Mean Liberal Conspiracy To Punish Conservatives is not the problem. These companies need genuine oversight and checks -- getting mired in familiar victimhood tropes won't serve that purpose

          Also worth bearing in mind that the most successful Twitter user of all time is the President

          Victimhood is a necessary feature of almost all contemporary American/Western conservative thought. It needs to be created where it doesn't exist.

          The dying empire can't hide its nakedness. Liberals and Conservatives included, much as they try and protest.

          These platforms are bowing to pressure. Regulate them like utilities and they can stand up to the pressure. It may be a simple take on things, but it's all I can think of.

          Then please, by all means, point to the instances of liberals being censored by these outlets in the same ways/numbers that conservatives are being censored. It’s not a complex if it’s true.

          They are censoring conservatives. Bottom line.

          I would refer you to @HalenIndus and #SMACA as an excellent route that protects *EVERYONE* regardless of political/philosophical/ideological stripe.
