relaxed moderation begets unchecked extremism

zuck did what?

the growing trend of reduced moderation on mainstream social media services will end up being a net negative to society. “free speech” advocates were never silenced in the literal sense. they had their “safe spaces” and weird subreddits to themselves.

today, impressionable young people are getting exposed to fringe and dumb content by default, and education is still underfunded for a significant portion of the world’s population.

we have already seen where this leads.

we are not going to forget myanmar so soon, are we?
