    I think he evinced some admirable self-awareness, which actually goes a long way toward *dispelling* conspiracies. Again, he should be subject to criticism, but "too transparent about the political orientation of Twitter employees" is not a good criticism https://twitter.com/mekosoff/status/1031566973375860738 …

        I think your general point is correct - admitting our biases is a good thing to be doing - but I don't think Dorsey claiming to be "left-leaning" (or contending that there is no ideology behind Twitter) is all that self-aware.

        It's admirably self-aware compared to what many critics would apparently have him do, which is to be in denial (at least publicly) about the political orientation of the company.

        I don't buy @jack pov that @twitter leans left. Nonsense. Can we talk about Albright and Brock and Correct the Record. They admitted to hiring, creating bot/troll network to demonize the Left/Sanders. Abuse of lists to encourage people to block @newday #newdaycnn #morningjoe

        Replying to @GDGriffin @mtracey and

        He says lean left because he is buying into an establishment version of "the left" which comprises Joe Manchin & Hillary Clinton. Basically Republicans are Right, Dems are Left. He has never addressed Brock & CtR. Has anyone in the MSM? Has Bernie?

        He looks so pensive. He’s probably just thinking about his haemorrhoids. Ouch.
