I'm getting really tired of this argument, and I don't think this post adds anything new to it.

Is censorship bad? Yes. Is QAnon bad? Also yes. Is there an easy answer here? No. What we're doing as a society is running a massive experiment to see the results of several bad options.

Every time I see an article like this, the author doesn't take into account that there is no easy answer here, and that while censorship is bad, all the options are had.



"and that while censorship is bad, all the options are had."

The word you are looking for is 'dilemma'.

The censorship issues is frankly probably a small thing, in the big picture, it's the general toxicity, the addiction to word-bytes of irrelevance, the odd FOMO factor etc..

There are a few nice things about Twitter, but it's really quite easy to quit.
