I was about to respond that stuff like this is very concerning, but l verified the findings first and l was able to pull up his page and the article. I don’t know what to say here. If his account was suspended it seems to be back now.

I did see that. I don’t know what the answer here is. I’m a big fan of free speech and the exchange of ideas. On the other hand people are absolutely at each others’ throats on social media, and it feels like it’s been that way for a good while now. It’s a bit of a powder keg situation. We’ve seen what that looks like when it goes sideways and it ain’t good.
I actually read an article about MeWe today. It was an interview with its creator, and it delved into its pros and cons. For those that don’t know, it’s a more loosey goosey social media platform that claims to be privacy oriented. Privacy is good, free speech is good, but some seedy stuff goes on there with racist groups and such.
Or so l’m told in the article. It was brought to my attention because l know someone going to that platform.
The other variable in all this is who wants to juggle all these social media platforms? I stick with Facebook to keep tabs on friends and family, peruse my interests and keep up with current events. I also use it for business promotional purposes. It’s a great way to convey information to a lotta people at once. A real time saver. I’d hate to have to duplicate efforts because l have to deal with multiple platforms.
I dunno. My hope is that when tensions ease things will go back to normal.
