I’m glad Woke Medicine –eg vax distribution by race on “social justice” grounds–is finally getting the electoral blowback it deserves. Woke Medicine poses a huge threat to popular support for Medicare and more universal national health care plans https://t.co/rkJIsgR9zG

Would give everyone a bit of sure footing and reassurance (eg. no N-words).. Some people–esp. the wokest–would be unsatisfied; Might not be profit-maximizing (if people and advertisers demand exceptionally safe spaces). But does Musk have to maximize profits?

P.S.: What if Musk published a non-vague list of limits in each of the key categories:1) These are the fighting words you can’t use–like the FCC’s famous 7 dirty words; 2) This is the high bar for “provably false” and how we’ll implement it; 3) just drop the “hate speech” ban.??

But if he doesn’t have answers to all the issues, at least he identifies them — “cabins” the problems, to use one of lawyer’s fave words. And putting it all under the current First Amendment should serve to frustrate the censors’ most misguided impulses. 5/5

Third, he practically invites SCOTUS to create a new “hate speech” exception to the 1st Amendment (“define a segment of hate speech not currently covered under the existing First Amendment exceptions and declare it unprotected.”) Seems capable of swallowing free speech whole. 4/

Second, he’d let sites ban “provably false” info as unprotected. The issue as he recognizes is who decides what’s “provably false.” He doesn’t have a satisfying answer. It can’t be just Twitter’s opinion or Twitter’s research. It shouldn’t be based on whether MSM approves. 3/

First, Sacks would expand unprotected “fighting words” to include “all racist, misogynist, homophobic, and other slurs.” Seems OK, but what trans activists consider a fighting-word slur the @BabylonBee considers is political satire. This category would have to be limited, no? 2/

This by @DavidSacks seems like the beginning of progress on the content moderation problem. Would only ban speech unprotected by the 1st Amendment, but there’s some trickiness … 1/ https://t.co/oAlc29saAl

How can that be? The “restrictions have only a modest impact on immigrant household use rates primarily because non-citizens (including illegal immigrants) can receive benefits on behalf of their U.S.-born children who are awarded …full welfare eligibility at birth.”

,@NPRJoel says it’s incorrect & “misleading or false” to say “immigrants are more likely to use public benefits than the native-born population.”
Again, it is apparently not false (even though new immigrants and illegals are barred from some programs), https://t.co/eKcuc210lk https://t.co/pAIhlFnSYi
