|content=Wasn’t that my point? That free speech absolutism is not what we mean by free speech according to the courts? Nvm.

|content=Twitter is bad at inference. Where did I come out against ā€œfree speechā€?
I came out against holding a Twitter poll and hiding behind the ā€œvoice of godā€. What if the poll had gone the other way? It shouldn’t have made 1 damn bit of difference.
Honestly, Twitter can be moronic.

|content=Honestly, this stuff is pretty consequential. There should be clear process & rules that apply to us all. The ad hoc nature of this appalling.
But whatever. You can misinterpret that too ā€œDude doesn’t understand marketing genius!ā€ I get it. Nothing matters. Ha. #Edgelordz4evah https://t.co/uUu0lAnS7B

|content=And just to remind everyone: I DON’T believe in free speech absolutism. You will notice that one by one the so-called free speech absolutists encounter edge cases they can’t stomach and WILT. I instead disappoint early so I stay the course (with exceptions patterned on case law).

|content=If you want to chase free speech absolutism be my guest. And when you run into child porn, defamation, stolen laptops, libel,
coordinated terror attacks, publication of plans for WMD, etc, etc., you can discover all the exceptions yourself that are ALREADY baked into free speech.

|content=Sad to have to deal with the mesmerizing effect of Trump’s tweets on the platform. Glad that he is no longer banned and I opposed his ban to begin with.
I am sure that will confuse many. I’m sorry. I can’t help. It’s a [[Free Speech|free speech]] thing. Be well.

|content=This is a bigger conversation. There is a lot of behavior on Twitter that is intended to intimidate people that hides behind pro-social rationalizations.
Tell me if you’ve heard the following excuses for *truly* antisocial posting:
A) It’s perfectly legal.</br>
B) It’s just a joke!

|content=The 1st thing to say is that a lot of those excuses are being used to cover up intentionally interpersonally destructive behavior. That is, folks who WANT to hurt others are generally on the look out for how they can hurt people and NOT pay the social price of being a psychopath.

|content=How can you tell the difference between a psychopath and say a true comedian, journalist, etc? Psychopaths do not attempt to minimize damage to families. Regular folks try to target institutions before named individuals. They regularly attempt to give others generosity of spirit.

|content=[[Morals|MORAL II]]: Excuses work because they muddy the water of abuse. The above excuses are appropriated from contexts where they make sense. But most internet critics are nothing of the kind. A criticism helps us course-correct. A stalker doesn’t want you to improve. They want anguish.

|content=[[Morals|MORAL III]]: A lot of what is visible on Twitter hides behavior offsite, and even offline. An apparent Twitter critic may be real-life stalker/sadist. Thereā€˜s no way to understand what is happening to public figures like @elonmusk by just looking at Twitter. This is just surface.

Or you may be making an assumption. If Elon is engaging in theater, am I objecting because I am totally taken in by the theater or am I objecting because the choice of theatrics itself seems incredibly dangerous, ill-considered and counter productive?
