You set the house on fire, watched it burn, and then lost your nerve and put it out. You now have a partially burned house. Great job.

What’s the difference between a gov controlling an algorithm, silently eliminating reach for things it doesn’t like, vs the same gov using its power, to demand that the platform remove the things it doesn’t like.?

Do me a favor—share this quick explainer by @reeciecolbert.bsky.social with folks ‘confused’ about the LAFD budget cut and its impact on the fires.
Spoiler: the “budget cut” was covered by an overrun. Translation? The department didn’t run out of money—they spent far more than originally approved.
