Hillary Clinton fretting: ” . . . we lose total control.” This short clip is surreal.

My reactions:

  1. Who is “we”?
  2. Since when is it the job of government to control the thoughts and communications of the citizens?
  3. Repeal of Section 230 is transparently a ploy to incentivize a lot more censorship.
  4. Who loses with more censorship? Those who believe that the power to run this country should reside with the citizens, not the politicians, the administrative state or the national security state.
  5. If Elon Musk handed the U.S. power to censor X (like Google/Youtube and FB have done), they would drop this 230 threat in a heartbeat.
