Opinion by Eugene Robinson: If Elon Musk wants Twitter, he’s welcome to it
Then, in 2011, the Fukushima nuclear accident happened. Like many people around the world, I wanted almost minute-by-minute updates on efforts to contain the worst nuclear disaster since Chernobyl. The only place I found I could satisfy my news-junkie cravings was on Twitter, where I could read tweets from Japanese authorities, reporters covering the story, nuclear physicists — and I was hooked. I recognized that Twitter was an incredibly useful way to follow breaking news.
Trump’s decision to govern by Twitter made the service impossible to quit — at least until Jan. 6, 2021, when his followers, inspired by his lies about the supposedly “stolen” election Trump lost to President Biden, stormed the Capitol. Then, at long last, Twitter invoked its rules prohibiting harassment and glorification of violence and banned Trump for life.
