When your fired election trust and safety team leader starts bandying about terms like hate speech and misinformation it must mean that the government gatekeepers are squealing like stuck pigs.

“But free speech, the product of X that upholds democracy, is not a technology company or a physical thing. Speech is evolving, complicated, and sticky. It requires tradeoffs, flexibility, and tough decisions. It shouldn’t be dictated by an autocratic CEO with absolutist ideologies.”
“Tradeoffs, flexibility and tough decisions.” What a pile of crap. She means hurting your enemies and helping your friends. Another way of saying this is “some animals are more equal than others.”
