Genuine question: is there a single country (except possibly China, oddly enough) where you think privatising the railways has led to anything positive? Free markets only work where there's competition between different operators, and what competes with rail in general, and especially in India? Air travel? Buses?

'Liberal' media (as you call it) seems to have covered this at least 7 days ago, not sure why Elon's Twitter is just suddenly 'blowing' up as you claim and where this conspiracy of silence you suspect is lurking in this case?

It really depends on your PQE level and practice area and qualifications. Here are some previous related threads:

We are looking into it, though moderation is not easy. However, we are wondering if a longer moderation cycle can also have a benefit, as it slows down discussions to be less 'addictive' in the social media sense, in that you don't need to refresh 12 times a day. This could actually foster more considered responses, rather than making it too much like a WhatsApp chat.

Any thoughts?

You could be from our college, you could be our boss or junior or brother or sister, but we'd have no way of knowing: we only record pseudonymised IP addresses to prevent spam, and those get regularly rotated, so we have no way to link you to a real identity (unless you choose to reveal yourself in a comment, which we generally try to gently discourage).

Is it only me, or are some commenters particularly concerned about shadowy cabals that are conspiring against them for no discernible reason? :)

(the possible actual 'science' reason: the voting allows only one vote per approximate and anonymised IP address - it's possible / likely your mobile data provider, ISP, law school, Tor browser, or firm is allocating a single or similar IP address to multiple computers, or you are unlucky and the anonymisation of your IP address vote collides with someone else who has also voted on this comment. Not sure if there is an easy way around this unfortunately).

Hiya, here's an old thread with some tips: https://www.legallyindia.com/convos/topic/175432-trilegal-ppo-interview-tips

And don't worry, be confident, know your CV well and read a business newspaper. And good luck! :)

Thanks for your insight and thought-provoking points. I fear the policy you recommend is a tough one to implement in reality. If no decision can ever be objectively made on good faith, than moderation can not exist except for blocking outright illegal content. And that's how you get a place like 4chan/pol, which is not a very pleasant place to spend a lot of time in, even if it is an interesting experiment.

And would you really want LI convos to be a free-for-all where everyone constantly posts their Xi / Winnie-the-Pooh and Rahul and Modi memes and shitposts and AI generated fake image memes for the lulz, and pro and anti-trans memes and articles and YouTube shorts and so on. Aren't there other platforms where you can get such 'content'?

The key aim of online moderation is to encourage a sense of community and free and open discourse, but not with so much freedom / anarchy as to make the place too unpleasant to spend time in.

And while fighting out ideological battles may be interesting and important to some - and it is interesting to see some of the prevailing views on both sides of the spectrum - then let's at least agree to stick to verifiable facts and bona fide arguments when talking about politics, and that's actually not very hard to judge. 'Bad faith' is often not much harder to identify than obscenity or other primitive judicial tests by "you know it when you see it". Likewise, consistent (mis)use of obfuscation, straw-man, ad hominem or other bad-faith argumentative techniques or fallacies are often good evidence of bad faith and can be established fairly objectively.

Sure, some edge-cases are hard, but 99% of examples are fairly obvious. And crucially, allowing those 99% of bad faith comments would not actually contribute to an insightful discussion, would it?

Yes, we are indeed looking into replacing us (at least in part) with an AI Overlord...

Please do share ideas for moderation rules the new Woke AI Overlord should follow. We are thinking of going with:

1. Be kind.

2. Be honest.

3. Be helpful.

Ps: As an update, we're also looking at

Still don't see a counter-argument or proposal there, hence your comment is pleasantly published (but obviously still trollish).

The thesis was: "Trans people are people too and should be accepted by their families."

Unless you have an anti-thesis or sound argument to counter that statement, please don't respond with obfuscation. People should only have the right to challenge, question and dissent if they do so truthfully and in good faith. Anything else is abuse of those rights.

Don't quite understand your argument: are you saying rights and acceptance of trans people is a new / novel idea that can destabilise democracy?

Are you saying anything depicted in the ad is a bad idea, besides the potential Starbucks virtue-signalling cringe factor?

Or are you saying corporates jumping on bandwagons / pushing boundaries to advertise is bad?

Prior warning: only legitimate responses / attempts to engage will be published.

This is not about left vs right, this is about preventing hate speech and encouraging intelligent discourse. Honestly and good faith argued opinions are always welcome here, from either side.

Chloe's personal experience is surely legitimate and valuable and is arguably not often written about (for a variety of reasons that would be interesting to explore but would be too long for this comment), though there seems to be fair questions that can be raised about how much it is allegedly a case of medical negligence as opposed to the 'woke mind virus that will destroy us all'. That first YT Short, for example, was disingenuous at best with the headline 'Woke Gender Lies, Child Abuse, and Mutiliation'. That is code / dog whistles for hate speech, and is intentionally designed to reduce the faculties of reason and stir up emotions. It also does nothing to encourage intelligent debate or further understanding.

Again, this is not a 'right' vs 'left' thing. We would similarly seek to moderate a video or comment that started with: "JK Rowling is a transphobic child abuser", which is presumably also a popular argument of the social media fringes on the opposite end of the culture war.

Please think for yourself in nuance, argue and articulate your own thoughts and you'll have space here.

There is no space here, however, to uncritically copy paste and reproduce political propaganda that is intentionally designed to make us all more stupid rather than making us understand each other better.

This has been asked several times before, but there does not seem to be much experience out there (maybe because it is still quite a small and niche office):
