    Here’s how this works:

    1. Network is created that doesn’t discriminate on speech.
    2. The left wins debates and it becomes increasingly liberal over time.
    3. Far right billionaires buy it to stop those process.

      That’s why decentralized platforms have to be the answer. They might not be impossible to co-opt, but they’re certainly more difficult.

      I’ve been warning people about this stuff for years, and they wouldn’t listen. I’m not happy about being right. It sucks!
