Nowadays when you hear that a reporter covers "misinformation and content moderation" you know they support censorship, although they absolutely hate that ugly but accurate description. And among the reporters with such a job description is Rebecca Kern of Politico.

The title of Kern's Wednesday article is also a reflection of her own attitude towards possible big changes coming to Twitter, "Three reasons Washington is freaking out about Elon Musk right now." And the big reason why Washington, and Kern, are freaking out is their fear that Musk will ditch censorship at Twitter.

Hitler and Stalin loved censorship, and one party rule too! (and confiscation of guns too!

The road to hell is paved with good intentions, hitlery says judge her by her intentions too.

Rid it of the censorship and the bots and it might be a worthwhile platform again.

But it will be a long time before I post anything there again.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
