> warning and leaving up

That will work for some time, but eventually there will be posts that will be so egregious that they'll be pressured to delete/hide them.



That's why I said there is a middle ground. In theory they could go further, and have options to make it increasingly hard to read the posts (i.e. you have to click through multiple warnings). But I'm not saying that they should never outright delete things if they are bad enough. They probably should never completely delete Presidential posts/tweets.

The nice thing is that then they aren't censoring. People are able to see what is being suppressed or hidden if they are interested. I think it is good to have nuance built into the tools.
