| Topic | Twitter BANS famous feminist Naomi Wolf. Did she deserve it? |

"The Free Market" isn't punishing Twitter/Facebook/etc. for banning people, so what mechanism would you suggest? The free market largely doesn't have a chance to. The startup costs for something like a Twitter/Facebook or youtube is far too high. That's why you see everybody using amazon even though most people hate them as a company and think they are evil. Like nearly everybody would switch and probably pay 5% more just to use a company that isn't as evil as amazon, and despite that market need, nobody fills it, because nobody can. It's too big to compete against. Capitalism has problems, and monopoly type things are part of that. So I can explain an algorithm that rewards "engagement". How do you make an algorithm to reward intellectual/critical thinking? People can curate each other's content. You can upvote people based on how much you trust their judgement and then they can upvote content across a few dimensions of intellectual integrity. Then just have people rate quality of engagement, and places that have prolonged good engagement, highly rated by trusted integrity, and low in hostility are the most highest recommended. --- "joe is attractive and quite the brilliant poster" - Seiichi Omori https://imgur.com/TheGsZ9 ...
