Insults and damages go beyond Twitter...

BBC first,

After HBO,

Both interviews talked about offensive and other inappropriate content or misinformation on Twitter, which is pretty good teaching material.

After watching the whole process, two interviewers pointed to the topic of "Keyboard Man". The former was edited into a small fire, and the latter got a positive answer of "more user interaction".

The ingenuity of Bill Maher is to directly point out the core of himself and everyone, who are helpless and helpless when faced with the keyboard, and the BBC is more about pointing fingers at inappropriate content on Twitter, so, on this multi-level and multi-threaded topic , Empathetic questions based on the most core facts are exchanged for real opinions; finger pointing is replaced by finger pointing.

Public figures’ online remarks are one of the focal points. Look at the love-hate entanglement under US President Biden ’s Twitter, which is typical enough; but the real core of this topic, limited by space or otherwise, I always feel that the two interviews have not touched it.

In reality, not only public figures, but anyone can become a hot topic. In reality, the vast majority of people have experienced being bullied with or without reason.

On the surface, the platform has responsibilities but the platform seeks profit, so external supervision is needed. Internet technology tests the management ability of human politicians, but Elon Musk is not a politician, but a technology-based dealer in the process of human civilization. As the town of Twitter Long, he also needs to face this problem in his own town.

What is the crux of the problem?

Elon Musk asked the BBC a similar question twice: If you were running Twitter, what would you do? Or we can just ask ourselves.

Try to clarify what can be clarified, first.

Human beings have not yet adapted to the information age of the Internet, which is the first key. Even in countries with more say, this is the sticking point. And this cauldron, except for the lack of theoretical knowledge of scholars who study information; education must also carry part of it.

Deploying Yammer in schools, making public decisions on public topics in schools, and doing everything possible to encourage and even encourage students to participate are all for this pot. Ten years to now, my point of view on this issue has not changed: the most important thing is not the degree of effective participation in the second layer, but the participation of more people in the first layer. Half a ninety-ninety-mile journey is what we call it. This is not a class, but it is closer to the soul of the class.

Not participating enthusiastically is at least as scary as not being able to participate.

In terms of actual operation in the past few years, what is more worrying is that there is no general participation, and there are always a small number of people who are willing to speak; and these people who are willing to speak out, more people are more likely to be biased. This is indeed a paradox. Without this bias, these people may not speak out at all; at the same time, because the number of speakers is naturally insufficient, resulting in insufficient checks and balances, so the school's Yammer eventually became a garbage dump.

When the so-called "adults" can't understand and adapt to the information society, how to teach "children" to understand and adapt? If we also consider the general environment of domestic speech control, the education and teaching field that needs the most courses has neither clarified the content, nor found the method, nor does it have the support of the large and small environment. Teacher, there are one or two saplings, but withered, it is only natural.

Roughly as above.

The ideal of waiting and hoping, and some more; or that's enough.
