I& #39;m worried.
Traffic is apparently *down* all over media-land.
If Trump gets re-platformed... I doubt editors will resist stories amplifying his disinformation.
It& #39;s not like we spent the past few months *actually* fixing our collective disinformation immune system.

Trump isn& #39;t just a guy, he& #39;s an entire disinformation ecosystem.
ONCE/IF Trump is back I think he& #39;ll chase public & bruising "censorship" showdowns w/whomever platforms him.
Then leverage defenders & ecosystem to bully platforms into permitting increasingly problematic stuff.

Plenty pro-Trump stuff also slid to *other* platforms, like Gab, Rumble, Parler, Bitchute...
Big platforms lost some traffic. Only they know whether it was enough to hurt.
I wish I were optimistic enough to believe this won& #39;t influence their thinking about re-platforming.

Having just tracked media& #39;s inability to refrain from cynical clickbait about the #CovidVaccine ...
I believe that if Trump is re-platformed, they will grease our slide backwards.
It will be swift & awful.
Only this time we& #39;ll have headed into it eyes-wide-open.
