For a brief moment Twitter was a unique platform where thought leaders in politics, academia, journalism, business, came together to yell at each other, dialogue, and engage with voters, customers, anyone with an idea they wanted to share. It was not always civil, it was not always productive, but it gave people a voice, it inspired as much as it infuriated. I am so sorry that Elon Musk burned it down, but hopeful that new platforms will emerge that learn & grow from Twitter's ashes.
@DavMicRot The Twitter fiasco will not be forgotten. The internet will long remember the lesson here: don’t trust oligarchs owning social media platforms.
@brianstorms @DavMicRot Long life to the free internet !
@brianstorms @DavMicRot ... except who BUT an oligarch can afford to buy a social media platform - or a TV station or a radio station or a newspaper? We live in a system that wildly favors the expression and influence of the rich.
