    Did she really say that building a wall doesn’t promote security? If the only people who can come inside your house need to use the front door to get in, then you have a much better chance at vetting who you allow into your home to keep yourself and family safe. Having secure borders is a great solution to the problem of millions of unknown people crossing your borders, many of which have been proven to have cartel connections, been involved in trafficking of both drugs and children, and have now murdered many Americans.

      lol she didn’t say secure borders were not important. You’re missing the point entirely, which actually proves her point. Have you ever left your odor open and expected a child safety gate to keep people out? That’s about as effective as relying on a fence for border security. America is not a house.

      @ComeWeFlyit’s much more precious than a house … grow up

      @ComeWeFlyThats why a border wall was necessary. It’s not a “fence” it a massive wall that makes it impossible for people to climb over, under, or through, so there only way into the country is through the official ports of entry. The border wall would be the walls of your house and the door would be the ports of entry if you wanted to keep the analogy.

    During instability people look to the voice that seems to guarantee the most stability with the least cost. And in most cases, the lowest cost is something of which you have no understanding

    Capital can’t maintain their control when democracy remains.

    No wrong. Its elite overproduction. Creating too many educated elite without any positions to fill.

    Demographic changes are due misguided immigration policy to fill for the inadequate educated elite.

    This lowers the market value of labor and creates cahnces for opportunistic educated elite to take control. Aka populists.

    You have a few solutions, stop mass migration, stop elite over production, or participate in this farce and begin repressing political enemies.

    the crisis of democracy lies in the fact that there is no democracy. As long as the economy is run autocratically it is irrelevant who wins the next election, because they can do nothing but to divide up the crumbs that fall from the tables of the rich.
    The crisis of democracy is that we are no longer fooled by your illusion of democracy and demand the real thing.

How Community Notes Reduce Viral Misinformation | Keith Coleman, Jay Baxter | TED

Community Notes on X started with a wild idea: Instead of tech companies deciding what’s true, what if you let people fact-check each other?

Community Notes on X started with a wild idea: Instead of tech companies deciding what’s true, what if you let people fact-check each other? Jay Baxter and Keith Coleman, who helped build the crowdsourced system adding context to misleading posts, discuss how the program reduces viral misinformation — and why people across the political spectrum trust it. In conversation with TED guest curator Audrey Tang, they discuss how their “surprising agreement” algorithm could reveal the common ground that quietly exists across a polarized internet. (Followed by a note from TED guest curators Divya Siddarth and Audrey Tang) (Recorded at TED2026 on April 14, 2026)
