The "yeah but" defense is extremely weak. Address the topic. Both sides can be wrong.
There is no way any reasonable can read these Twitter files and feel like Twitter wasn't actively pushing an agenda, aided by members of our government, in order to influence the American public politically.
And this is coming from someone who has been anti-Trump as can be.
TO be fair, all that twitter was pushing were things coming from the Trump government. So it seems like you could easily pretzel logic yourself into that
THat being said, Twitter is a minnow. Twitter is something like the 6th most used social media platform in America. Behind Snapchat, TikTok, INstagram, Youtube and Facebook. Twitter is much closer to LinkedIn than it is to Facebook or Instagram. Reddit is about as pervasive in the average AMerican's social media usage as Twitter. You're much more likely to find someone pushing an agenda (and doing it more successfully) on Meta's watch than Twitters.
Twitter is overhyped on it's reach because of who the original twitter users were, Journalists. IT was a way to break stories quickly. Back in the day I got twitter and logged in for 1 day , MLB trade deadline. I switched to twitter when Facebook became too insane for me. ANd I'll leave twitter when it fails me too or the people I follow there leave.
