This is wrong. Just wrong. Eliminating Section 230 would remove the means by which Twitter and any site that has third party content CAN AND DO moderate content. Image
“People could still discuss politics, until someone sues Twitter because I called them a belligerent raccoon for deliberately misrepresenting the pay-go rule.”
The end of Section 230 is the veritable end of third-party user content, because no one can afford that level of liability protection and would sooner blow it up than risk hundreds of lawsuits per second.

Millions of people died horrifying deaths because one family had some drama and one chauffeur reversed at a very inconvenient time.
World War One:
England, Germany, France, Russia, Austria-Hungary: we are friends and advanced nations, we do not want to go to war, the Schlieffen Plan is just for funsies

Gavrilo Princip: :: throws bomb ::

England, Germany, France, Russia, Austria-Hungary: well fuck
