gollark: > have any of the ideologies affected by the things facebook/twitter/whatever do been worth a damn?I don't know. Maybe. I just don't exactly want social media companies having vast amounts of power to control public thought just because they're maybe not misusing it much now.

gollark: I mean, transphobia/fascism/etc aren't really making scientific claims.

gollark: Okay, you are going increasingly far with that?

gollark: Unless their opinions are serious cognitohazards of some form.

gollark: ... sure, ish? The issue is that Facebook/Twitter/whatever control *a whole lot* of speech and stuff now.
