come say hi

The statement by @librarythingtim, 'prefer not to jump from one despot to another but I am @garymarcus over there too…', constitutes public discourse as it engages with the broader issue of social media platforms and their governance. The statement implies a critique of the leadership or ownership of these platforms, suggesting a comparison between them and despotic rule. This touches on public concerns about the influence and control exerted by social media companies and their leaders.

  1. Principle 1:
    I will strive to do no harm with my words and actions.
    The statement does not directly cause harm but uses strong language ('despot') which could be seen as inflammatory. This could potentially harm the discourse by escalating tensions rather than fostering understanding. [-1]
  2. Principle 2:
    I will respect the privacy and dignity of others and will not engage in cyberbullying, harassment, or hate speech.
    The statement does not respect the dignity of the individuals it refers to, as it uses the term 'despot' which is a strong and negative characterization. This could be seen as a form of cyberbullying or harassment. [-2]
  3. Principle 3:
    I will use my words and actions to promote understanding, empathy, and compassion.
    The statement does not promote understanding, empathy, or compassion. Instead, it uses a derogatory term which could polarize the conversation further. [-2]
  4. Principle 4:
    I will engage in constructive criticism and dialogue with those in disagreement and will not engage in personal attacks or ad hominem arguments.
    The statement does not engage in constructive criticism or dialogue. It uses a personal attack ('despot') rather than addressing specific issues or policies in a constructive manner. [-2]
