The only way to be accurate is to permit free unfiltered speech.

He is tanking Twitter and his 44 bills.

I don’t get it. But then I don’t get New Jersey.

(That was a cheap shot.)

Free speech means the right to say things that a majority disagrees with. If he blocked those opinions, he’d be as disgusting as the last iteration of Twitter.

Free speech does NOT include the right to encourage illegal actions. So I would expect Musk to NOT have a pedophile on a moderation counsel, but WOULD expect him to have members of the L-alphabet groups, as well as people of political opinions to both the left and right. That means far left and far right, not just the establishment middle. So you can’t get away with having an AOC supporter without having a Trump supporter.

The perfect moderation counsel, in my opinion, would require that blocking content would require unanimous consent. Put the right group of conflicting opinions together, and no one would get blocked except the ones adjudicating for illegalities.

If there were only one Trump supporter on the council, he or she would probably be continually casting the sole “no” vote that saves nonconformists of the stripes I described from Twitter oblivion.

There should be at least two unquestionable MAGA Trump supporters on the council, the idea being that no one person gets so much grief from the psychotic woke shock troops surrounding them that they are driven out of the council on a rail, or forced to quit to save their sanity or protect themselves or their family.
