X’s New Feature Reveals Why Trust & Safety Work Was Never About The ‘Censorship Industrial Complex’
For the last few years, Matt Taibbi, Michael Shellenberger, and their allies have spent considerable energy attacking both academic researchers studying disinformation and the trust & safety teams at social media platforms working to identify and remove coordinated inauthentic behavior—particularly foreign influence operations. They've insisted that any attempt to study and limit such operations is actually just "censorship" with various forms of cover, whether academic or operational.

🧵 A bot network tried to help the GOP retain power in Virginia by influencing the Attorney General election.

It failed: Democrats won a triplex in the state govt: Gov, LtGov, AG seats.

This outcome could affect the 2026 midterms and subsequent presidential elections.

Unpopular opinion supported by facts: transition from X to BlueSky for editorial media shows that less but qualitative subscribers is equivalent to being present on a toxic platform.

If the end result is the same, why not supporting alternative platforms?
