"We write as journalists, artists, authors, activists, technologists, and academics to warn of increasing international #censorship that threatens to erode centuries-old democratic norms. [...]"
@publicvoit People that call a law that forbids the denial of genocide as censorship are none that I want to pay attention. Also it's interesting what laws they don't mention: Americas states censor books in schools and libraries. German states censor Gender aware language in schools and even universities. Yes censorship is a growing problem, but these people seem to want to protect hate speech and disinformation rather than free speech and democracy.
@publicvoit Using the term ‘mainstream media’ says it all — it often reveals the author’s political leanings and implies a monolithic media landscape that doesn’t actually exist.

David is a smart guy and certainly understands hypocrisy. Great example of the power of Twitter addiction to twist ones thoughts and rationales into a pretzel.
@spaceflight Musk is an ass, but no one is making Ukraine (or anyone else) use Starlink, and no one is preventing companies or countries from deploying their own constellation.
