Except that: 1. Those organizations aren't there to "police" the community. Here are Twitter's actual words about what they're meant to do: "The Twitter Trust and Safety Council provides input on our safety products, policies, and programs." Notably not listed there: having any direct power over the Twitter community. 2. The reason why Twitter introduced this thing is that they were getting a lot of flack from people and groups who "lean to the left", for allegedly being a cesspool of the sort of abuse that people and groups who "lean to the left" get most upset about, and not doing anything about it. I don't know whether those accusations were 100% wrong, 100% right, or somewhere in between. But when a company is attacked for doing or allowing something allegedly bad, it's hardly a surprise if the people it gets onside to try to show it's addressing the problem are the sort of people who most disapprove of whatever it was. |
