Report: A ‘Young, Queer Asian-American Businesswoman’ Will Control Free Speech on Twitter
Breitbart ^ | 27 Nov 2020 | Lucas Nolan

Tech news site Protocol published a profile recently of Christine Su, the senior product manager for conversational safety at Twitter. Su’s approach to the platform’s censorship will focus on “transformative and procedural justice.”

Tech news site Protocol recently published an article titled “How a Young, Queer Asian-American Businesswoman is Rethinking User Safety at Twitter,” which profiles Christine Su, Twitter’s senior product manager for conversational safety. Su describes herself as an “activist-entrepreneur” who spent six-year running a startup called PastureMap that aimed to help ranchers plan climate-friendly grazing practices.

Protocol outlined Su’s aims at Twitter, writing:

A woman with an MBA and a master’s in land use and agriculture might seem like an odd choice, but she’s been interested in mission-driven tech work for years. It’s what drove her commitment to PastureMap and then her decision to join Twitter. “As a queer women of color who is an Asian American in tech in rural America, that experience is a very intersectional one. I’ve had plenty of experiences moving through spaces where I wanted more safety,” she said. After years of worrying for her sister’s safety (she’s a journalist covering sensitive topics in the Middle East and now China) as well as her own, Su knew she wanted to focus on building safety and inclusion for people who are the most vulnerable.

Transformative and procedural justice are the foundation of Su’s vision for a safer Twitter. The once radical concepts challenge the notion that we should just punish people who cause harm, instead offering an alternative: a pathway to repair the harm that has been done and to prevent its recurrence (transformative justice), and a set of fair rules that make harm rarer in the first place (procedural justice)...

If it’s ‘controlled,’ then it ain’t free.
End Section 230.

Those who hate America the most seem to be the ones who migrate to positions where they can really destroy us.

Reads as though written by Elizabeth Warren.

Twitter and other social media should be regulated as publishers, because that’s how they’re behaving. And any free speech classical liberal should NOT utilize these viewpoint discriminatory platforms.

That depends on who controls the Senate in 2021. If the Democrats do they are consolidating power.

Another totalitarian apparatchik. These scum aspire to entirely unearned power over others. There is only one real solution.

Wake up. Twitter exists to control us and to spy on us. It is barely profitable, if it is even making a profit. My local pizzeria and nail salon are more profitable. Yet it has made its diabolical overlords into billionaires. Its revenues supposedly come from advertising. When is the last time you or anyone you know purchased something on account of Twitter?

That is one reason people are voting with their feet and moving to alternate platforms like Parler.

Don’t they get money from people advertising on their platform?
