The “Readers added context” feature is the only good thing about Twitter.

      I’m surprised he hasn’t got rid of it yet. Maybe he has to have it in order to keep his few remaining advertisers?

        The thing is, it’s usually long enough after his comments have had their impact that these additions are made. It’s really his having/eating cake feature. He can say some out and out false shit, it gets picked up by his base and spread, the community mod a day or two later goes “actually”, and if someone calls him out he can just say “oh but the community mod set things right” if he doesn’t just outright ignore it.

          It took a while for the note on “makes no sense” to show up, but that first one appeared almost immediately.
