    Sure, agreed, but what’s his plan to fix this? Where’s the progress? I see plenty of Qanon and bigots (and whatever you don’t like) stinking up the place.

      The issue with Twitter is people who think they’ve got a platform to speak loudly. When you have a platform like that, it’s inherently going to be shit, no matter who runs it.

        Partly agree, but, like, anybody acting with a modicum of seriousness could do better. Of course it will never be perfect, or even great, but improvement is possible.
