President Trump said Wednesday that he will “strongly regulate” or even “close down” social media platforms, one day after Twitter flagged two of his posts.

The president made the vow on Twitter one day after the social media platform added a message on two of his tweets that linked to a page disputing the accuracy of his posts.

“Republicans feel that Social Media Platforms totally silence conservatives voices,” Trump said over two tweets Wednesday morning. “We will strongly regulate, or close them down, before we can ever allow this to happen. We saw what they attempted to do, and failed, in 2016. We can’t let a more sophisticated version of that happen again.”

In the two flagged tweets, Trump warned that mail-in voting is ripe for fraud, particularly in California.

Trump, in response to Twitter fact-checking his tweets, tweeted Tuesday: "@Twitter is now interfering in the 2020 Presidential Election. They are saying my statement on Mail-In Ballots, which will lead to massive corruption and fraud, is incorrect, based on fact-checking by Fake News CNN and the Amazon Washington Post," the president tweeted. "Twitter is completely stifling FREE SPEECH, and I, as President, will not allow it to happen!"

I'm pretty sure they set the algorithms loose and let them do what they will until a big enough celebrity gets hit with a deplatforming. Then a human looks into it, clicks a few buttons and they issue an apology, "Oops, it was an accident."

It's the same algorithm that shows you "Top Tweets" instead of latest tweets, and then curates what tweets you do and don't get to see. It's beyond insidious and unaccountable, fucking with people's comms like some kind of god.

Code that needs to be deleted. Fucking viruses.

Election security is fundamental to National Security.

Shame to find the topic missing from the current WH National Security Strategy.
