This isn't pointed out enough, IMO. People act like it went sharply downhill under Musk but this is the platform that enabled extremists for years and only even banned Trump when he literally tried to overthrow democracy. Maybe Twitter was good in like 2010 but I really don't think Musk changed THAT much about it.
Okay, but the new Twitter reinstated him, and a bunch of Nazis.
I mean, old Twitter was jokingly called "the hellsite" by its users but its new Elongated form is quite a lot worse.
