Twitter will amplify the most extreme positions on both ends, the ones to cause most outrage - Ban all guns, completely! - No restrictions on gun ownership should be allowed whatsoever, not even age limits! These cause the most outrage / emotion => therefore they get the most retweeted => create a distorded mental picture of even deeper division. We're never going to solve anything that way. The problem isn't one of free speach and censorship. Its a problem of amplification of emotionally manipulative content. The amplification is exponential (because the retweet process is exponential). This is a disaster. |
