I agree. I however, see t
How would this proposed social media service avoid the problems of existing
social media in that they are generally not 'knowledge dissemination services',
but spreaders of opinion, disinformation, and often complete rubbish, with a
random sprinkling of knowledge scattered among the garbage?

I am very disappointed with this decision and announcement.
Surely anyone who has read this notice must be thinking that Brazil is at war,
in wreckage. But that is not true.
Brazil has never produced so much positive impact in our movement as it has

You're entirely correct in that we don't want to see the situation in
Brazil remain as it is, and I think there are many potential ways forward
