People worry a lot about losing knowledge — about "burned-down libraries".
Comparatively few people seem to worry about what happens if you take a billion books full of auto-generated, often-untrue junk text and *add* them all to the library.
In theory, nothing is lost. In reality, everything is lost, because nothing useful can now be found.
Please read this thread.
We can joke all we want, but let's not forget that upon buying Twitter, the richest man in the world immediately welcomed Kanye West and Donald Trump back onto the platform.
Kanye announced a war on Jews, Trump met with him, and they're both still welcome on this platform.

This is beyond outrageous - it’s despicable. Solidarity to @[email protected], his family and the team.
We confirm that Jordan Shank’s home was firebombed last night.He is safe. We hope that every possible police resource is dedicated today to securing evidence and intel. It might even warrant a Strike Force focused upon terrorism and attempted homicide rather than dangerous jokes.

Love it, share it.
With Trump back on Twitter,
it’s a good time to watch this Jan 6 hearing. It covers each of Trump’s tweets that day, including those that have been deleted, and features multiple Trump WH staff describing his inexcusable conduct during the violence. https://january6th.house.gov/legislation/hearings/072122-select-committee-hearing
