i don't care, just giving my opinion but if that's caring

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

http://thehill.com/opinion/campaign/399412-journalists-please-dont-leave-its-time-to-fix-twitter

now do they think so much of themselves they think they can 'fix' internet ?

Whatever they have to say to let them put one foot in front of the other

"Assuming the company gets a better handle on what civility looks like, Twitter could start rewarding good behavior."

AYYYYY

Are we going the china way ?

how are twitter gona reward good behavior

Think about who we're talking about, we're going Hogwarts when it got new management

a checkmark for good behaviour 😉

people mock the checkmarks, the only good behavior token they have atm

Oooh, apparently blue checkmark to real people who behave nicely is the reweard

We have the "verified checkmark"

And not getting banned

litterally

the checkmarks are a slur

Because we made it so

And they gave us the fuel

Its always some checkmark saying stupid shit.

it used to be, a idea so stupid only an intelectual could have come up with it, now its an idea so stupid only a checkmark could have rewritten an article he read on another site for it

Either some checkmark, or some nobody with 4 digit followers

WTF, reading the next article that pops up under the Twitter one... people are seriously wanting to rename Austin

To?

rename it to autism

to teach people with similar plans a lesson

Works, the most blue area of Texas

That's the funny part: They're not even recommending a new name, just wanting to change it

Sounds like progressive

This is old, therefore it must be changed

... "Austin’s namesake, Stephen F. Austin — also referred to as the "father of Texas" — opposed efforts by Mexico to abolish slavery in the Tejas province, saying freed slaves would become “vagabonds, a nuisance and a menace,” the newspaper noted."

He wasnt wrong

And well, you know, the far left and erasing history

Reminds me of the wiki on Robert E. Lee: "Lee also expressed his “willingness that blacks should be educated, and ... that it would be better for the blacks and for the whites.” Lee forthrightly opposed allowing blacks to vote: “My own opinion is that, at this time, they [black Southerners] cannot vote intelligently, and that giving them the [vote] would lead to a great deal of demagogism, and lead to embarrassments in various ways.”"

Dem or repub?

?

Was Robert a democrat or a republican?

Not really either. He was apolitical before the war, and wouldn't really be allowed to participate afterwards until he was pardoned.

Fair

Generally, his aim was more to stop radical action afterwards: Gets blacks educated and in good economic standing before giving voting rights; educate Northerner and Southerners together
