Again, the only possible platform abuse policy is, "You can't be a dick and that means whatever I decide it is."

We need to dispense with this objectivity bullshit, which is continually shown to be puerile. "Find another club for this shit" is the greatest transparency feasible https://twitter.com/pwnallthethings/status/1317231706433310720

The partitioning of the Internet is already perfect: You register a domain name, and as long as it isn't overwhelmingly illegal or abusive, we won't suspend it.

Facebook should not exist. It is too large to govern by singular policy. Let people congregate in their own shit.

I'm actually somewhat of a free speech absolutist, opposed to central control.
But websites themselves are inescapable bastions of dictatorship.
You want your own, register one and be accountable for what that means.

I grew up, literally spent years as a teen, in Wikipedia policy. At one time, I was assembling what would be physical reference guides for Wikipedia policies. So they could be printed and referenced.

You know what it boils down to? Human judgement. There's no other possibility.

The purity of a teenager enraptured by worldly mission is a beautiful thing. It is pure, and just, and driven by an impossible strength.

But it is also naive. It is ignorant. It is projection of the world as it should be, in the mind of what amounts to a charlatan of lifetimes.

This isn't an excuse for abusive platforms, or allowances for them. It is an essential stripping of their claimed moral indemnity which cannot possibly exist.

Twitter may nominally appear to generally align to my worldview right now by charges of critics, but I have no illusion it's obligated to follow-through on that. This isn't my home and I have no possible power to preserve it. It's healthy to know that.
