I'm not a Trump fan by any means. But when it comes to combating reckless censorship and fighting for free speech, especially in social media, I approve of what he is doing.
all too often social media sites exercise political favoritism by censoring outspoken members of one side or the other. In my mind social media should be seen as a public utility and as such its users should have protections to freedom of speech that you arent usually guaranteed in a private space.
This also may mean that a lot of fediverse instances that have servers in America might need to start second guessing their draconian censorship policies, and that would be a happy change.

@freemo On an International level (unable to meaningfully comment on internal performance) I think Trump is doing a good job. Its not perfect, but its much better than his predecessors.
@xyfdi in general, he is the pro coal president for example and generally anti-green energy. As well as deregulating a lot of pollution stuff.
@freemo He can be a fucking boomer at times. 🤷🏻♂️
@freemo Ad 1) That's fine. People didn't vote for for his finesse. Not really something I notice or am bothered by. Having lived next to drugs shelters you get used to it.
Ad 2) Are you referring to the Paris Accords or just in general?
