Tired of the toxicity of social media? Why not join Ricochet for just $5/month? Think of it as an online bar. Come in, have a drink, hang out, say whatever you want. But don’t badger, bully, or berate the other drinkers. That's our only rule.
There is a tide... and depending on who you ask, Democracy is either drowning in it or she's catching some righteous swells. With Peter and Rob elsewhere, James links up with guests-slash-hosts Charlie Cooke and Steve Hayward to soak up the vibes. There's blue check mania and sleeper issues puzzling pollsters; not to mention Covid amnesty and Michael Beschloss coming down with whatever Chris Hayes has.
Hosted by Charles C. W. Cooke, James Lileks, and Steve Hayward

Charles is wrong (where's that feather?), Facebook and Twitter are not like the people at the other end of the phone. The people at the other end of the phone are the other users of Facebook and Twitter, that you are communicating with via Facebook and Twitter. And they CAN "hang up." They can ignore, they can silence, they can block... Twitter and Facebook have that feature, although Ricochet still doesn't.

And the main problem with Section 230 is not the existence of Section 230, the problem is when companies try to be both platform and publisher.

Come on James, you didn't start in at 100-something. You were there starting with like #12 or something.
