I have such disdain for the e/acc crowd given that I believe that "we do not understand the consequences of what we are building".

But now I'm not sure if it's fair to ignore the consequences of building Twitter, or even the internet. Seeing people's behavior during this event has been incredibly disheartening.

The wikivoyage page for the United States explicitly advises that neither politics nor religion should be discussed when meeting people in this country.

How did we get to this point.

For at least the last 5 or so years I've been right there with you with the same thoughts and concerns. I'm completely convinced after what I saw today that global social media platforms were and still are a mistake. Especially so for the younger generations that have never known a world without them.
