The problem isn't that Twitter is adding tags to Trump's tweets.

The problem is that Twitter's business is directly engineered to profit off of Trump's harassment, dysfunction, and cruelty.

The problem is that our economy explicitly rewards people detrimental to society.
The problem is hypercapitalism rewards people and businesses who act completely out of destructive self-interest.

This is no way to create a decent, human, and fair world and ensures division and needless suffering.

Trump is just the embodiment of that.
The problem is that the President of the United States can get on a platform, spew conspiracy theories, baseless accusations of crime and corruption, and the platform benefits and he inherently benefits by overpowering the news cycle.

All of this is built to fail.
