    There’s a lot of crazy people and they are much more dangerous when they are repeatedly fed conspiracy theories by stochastic terrorists like Trump.

    Interesting intersection, it's demonstrably evident that society is in fact very persuadable by political signalling. There's pretty compelling evidence that court rulings that strengthen minority protections produce measurable enfranchisement, and conversely that rulings that strip discrimination protections, do in fact produce increased discrimination shocking I know.

    These signals do create the permission umbrella needed for radicalized actors to move forward with crazy behavior they otherwise wouldn't. Trump knows that. I don't know how you charge it, but some DA has got to go after twitter like the school shooting victims have gone after Remington. Trump's a known quantity. Twitter, and it's advertiser base, need to act on public nuisance doxing like 18th century piracy. Immediately account freeze, and de-platforming after due diligence review. It's terrorism.
