Now that he’s back on Twitter, neo-Nazi Andrew Anglin wants somebody to explain the rules. Anglin, the founder of an infamous neo-Nazi website , was reinstated Thursday, one of many previously banned users to benefit from an amnesty granted by Twitter's new owner Elon Musk .

The information revealed by Musk included Twitter’s decision to delete a handful of tweets after receiving a request from Joe Biden’s campaign. The tweets included nude photos of Hunter Biden that had been shared without his consent — a violation of Twitter’s rules againstInstead of revealing nefarious conduct or collusion with Democrats, Musk’s revelation highlighted the kind of difficult content moderation decisions that he will now face.

While far from perfect, the old Twitter strove to be transparent with users and steady in enforcing its rules, Roth said. That changed under Musk, he told a Knight Foundation forum this week.“When push came to shove, when you buy a $44 billion thing, you get to have the final say in how that $44 billion thing is governed,” Roth said.

“We’re not talking about people not having resilience to hear things that hurt feelings,” said Thenmozhi Soundararajan, executive director of Equality Labs, which works to combat caste-based discrimination in South Asia. “We are talking about the prevention of dangerous genocidal hate speech that can lead to mass atrocities.”

AP is about as unbiased as CNN , musk is doing great

It's messy if you're trying to promote free speech. For you guys, that's not an issue.

Not really. The public moderates itself and they review. It's just that simple.

As I am concerned the AP has lost its credibility! Crickets on the out in our face facts of suppression! AP is like the Kardashians… so last year

Especially when the Saudis control your strings.

You've lost all standing with the public for good.

He alone can fix it! 👎

If only the AP can learn how to learn to report the truth!

Kanye should have his account restored. He did nothing illegal. He showed the same symbol (swastika) that we see in photos of Ukrainians on Twitter. Some of those photos are from corp. media outlets. Kanye may have bad opinions but they are opinions any of us can challenge.

Seems to be doing pretty well

But free speech is easy.

Where was AP when we were getting censored and Twitter would let Antifa go around call for and instruct violence while ignoring the rampant pedophilia of old twitter. Hack jurnolism

Clowns, every single one of you. enemyofthepeople

So, the AP just silences ALL content it doesn't like and calls it 'content moderation' instead. Makes life easier for you, eh AP?

Musk is teaching a master class on moderation in real time. Take notes, AP

Journalism is dead ☠️

Hey have you seen the LaptopFromHell around by chance?

No more trust is AP News anymore... Its all CORRUPT AND FAKE...

Free speech needs moderation ?

It’s almost as if Twitter should have a bunch real humans scanning questionable content and making real human decisions about it. Almost.

AP = American Propaganda👍🏾

Especially when you spent $44billion to recreate Gab

Is this the kind of warm, fuzzy, well-balanced, safe-space creating content moderation you folks are missing?

There's a lot of things Musk is doing when it comes to Twitter. Learning is not one of them.

They are insiders & betrayers! In moderation they must go! Otherwise our toleration Will be expired to zero...

, do you see the irony of whining about Twitter on Twitter?

Especially when one tries to negotiate it the way the previous ownership of Twitter was doing... as we all now see!

Musk is learning will not thoroughly cover the Hunter Biden laptop story

he wanted a circus. he got a circus.

When are you going to cover the fact that Democrats colluded directly with Twitter to get their political rivals banned or censored?

No it’s not. Its quite easy. Free speech ends where te law ends it.

Content moderation = denial of free speech.

David Joyce has just shown on This Week that Republicans are still putting party over the American people even after saying they want to help the people as he as with all Republicans will not condemn & will still vote for Trump in 2024.

It’s a mess when you try to implement censorship yes.

Its complex messy and expensive Its cheaper without but then you loose your advertising which is also expensive

I thought content moderation was censorship? Another inconsistency financed by his daddy’s little venture “facisist”

They should just ask . They have done a great job at moderating content for year's... AP = Propaganda.....

You so want him to fail

Lol “moderation”

No he’s unveiling the curtain behind what conservatives have been saying for years, and that you the MSM has lied about for you Dem overlords. That shit is over. Power to the people!

He is

Thw price of freedom.

Now only Elon gets to decide who to ban. How Democratic and American.

Lmao, we just traded a Democratic board which answers to the public shareholders and makes choices based on the majority of the community for an authoritarian who makes up his own rules. You can’t make this shit up in Murica.

What evidence do you have that he's learning?

Who pays attention to ap😆

Moderation isn’t the problem. Twitter putting its thumb on the scale and only moderating conservatives is the problem

How about you talk about the Twitter Files?

Musk wasn't smart enough to know Twitter needing tweeting not destruction

So Twitter won’t honor victim requests for revenge porn take downs? Is that what I’m hearing? Their moderation is worse than Porn Hub’s I guess.

lol. AP being intentionally obtuse for their leftist readers. In actuality, he got rid of 80% of the workforce and moderation got drastically better.

While we are on the subject of 'content moderation', why is the AP still silent on this?

Is Twitter moderation done by bots or humans?

So is gonna talk about the Twitter files or what?

Particularly since he's now the biggest troll on the site.

How about you tell us the name of the secret services source that almost lied us into a nuclear war between NATO and Russia? Your reputation is tarnished beyond repair. What a shame.

Covering up the footprints of fraud. Shame on the media!

So many trolls, man. Almost unmanageable.
