This is an important story. I'm glad you are keeping us informed about it.

Mrs. Mobley was my first librarian. She was so incredibly kind. My mother got me reading of course, but the elementary school library was full of great books. She gently suggested me away from the war books and into the nature section. Nothing can beat a good librarian for getting someone started on the right track in life.

Yours is the voice I've been awaiting on this subject. You are spot on and bring a historical perspective few others can. Possibly your most i8mportant post ever.

Interesting parallel between what Yoel Roth and his team at Twitter were doing and the Third Section’s process.

Elon Musk should receive a Nobel Peace Prize -- he just might have saved us from US bipartisan fascist War party.

It will be interesting if censorship research at Twitter will extend into “unprovoked” Ukraine catastrophe or into 70 years of terror on Palestinians.

Not at all sure about Bari Weiss who supports apartheid, i.e., racism, publishes her interview with “Bibi” Netanjahu in her newsletter while promoting Twitter files, adores super-racist Nathan Sharansky ("Kill all Arabs") and permanently eliminates/censors her paying readers if they mention human rights of Palestinians.

I guess it's time for me to go back to Areopagitica :)
