Followup to Deplatforming Works

// May 16 2024, ~1 min read, #politics


Yet another study on the subject has come to my attention:


Re: Deplatforming Works


The impact of deplatforming the far right: an analysis of YouTube and BitChute


> The time frame for this study includes the removal of some critically important far-right figures. Our analysis shows that deplatforming effectively minimizes the reach of disinformation and extreme speech, as alternative platforms allowing this kind of content cannot mitigate the negative effect of being deplatformed on YouTube.


Debate doesn't work, minimizing their reach works. It fucking works. It works small scale, it works large scale. Don't engage with dipshit right-wing debate types. Remove them from your platforms if you run any, and if you're just a user, block and report them.
