Of course, Twitter, such a bastion of free speech that even its own AI chatbot gets repeatedly told off and reprogrammed whenever it disagrees with its owners right-wing opinions...

So, I guess that illustrates your position rather aptly.
So your argument is "This site should be more like Twitter, which so many people have left because it is worse than here."
Yeah, that's a stupid argument.

That's a great idea. Ensure he's actually nearby as it happens.
But he probably won't even attend the next President's inauguration because he's becoming more of a whiny little baby every week.
