And who decides what is just propaganda or conspiracy theory?
Don’t you trust people to make up their own minds?
I am generally one who likes to admit all comers, regardless of their opinions...and let the best ideas win.
But I have changed my mind (recently) on Twitter a little bit.
As to whom decides whether it is propaganda or conspiracy theory on Twitter, I think it has to be Musk himself so that only one person can be held responsible.
As you say, I do trust people to make up their own minds. That's the only way.
That said, I think Musk is worried--initially at least--about the system getting clogged up and overwhelmed with propaganda and conspiracy theories to such an extent that real free speech cannot find a space.
As said above, I am trying to feel my way through this issue carefully and am open to a change of mind as the new Twitter progresses.
I also think Musk refused to reinstate Jones as a signal to potential users who were (perhaps unjustifiably) concerned about differing opinions being inflammatory. Our country right now is a tinder box of vastly different ideas (those on the Left being absolutely frikken insane). But somehow Musk has to entice people of all opinions to meet up for a discussion.
Alex Jones decided for himself when he accused the parents, as a matter of fact, that they were in on the slaughter of their own children.
He should have been mindful that there were people who made a point of recording his show for the purpose of the one statement that he might make that that would fit the legal standard of slander.
