 Aloha. Thank you for your consideration of the views expressed in this ThinkTech commentary. Up until now, Twitter has been going in the right direction compared to other social media platforms in regards to regulating hate speech, particularly when it barred Donald Trump. But Elon Musk's frenetic purchase of Twitter and what he has done since then has changed all that. Musk has permitted outrageous lies and conspiracy theories on Twitter, pulled moderation systems, and has himself tweeted hateful lies, appalling conspiracy theories and calls for violence, most recently spreading misinformation about the attack on Paul Pelosi. On the same day that Musk closed his deal, researchers from Montclair State University found that the platform has become a much more hostile environment. Hate speech increased 4.7 times higher than the seven-day average. Twitter is becoming an appalling and destructive force in social media and the public conversation even more than before, dangerous to them, to us and the country. We hope it fails, and we hope that its failure will show other social media platforms that they should not follow Musk's example. We hope other social media platforms will learn to respect the trust reposed in them by the public and that they will better moderate their content. We cannot succeed in anything as a nation of fools. Our democracy depends on demanding truth and rejecting lies from all media, and to act constructively and with purpose to achieve truth and reliable information about our community, our country and the world around us. Lies and hate destroy democracy, and that should be clear from history. We can only hope there will be a more rational change in ownership and a sweeping and profound change in policy at Twitter. Or for a new, better platform in the future. Thanks so much for considering the views expressed in this ThinkTech commentary. Aloha.
