Yes, but how much of it?

It is definitely a reason for it, but it’s also true that there are people who hate him and who might take part in spreading more hate on Twitter just to harm him by increasing the statistics for hate speech.

I'm sure there's trolls in there but loads who don't like him just left. Throw in the fact that he unbanned some heinous shits who just love themselves some racism and gutted moderation you're really reaching to not blame him.

Personally, I don’t need to justify what he does, i can just accept it and don’t care that it allegedly is bad.

But I don’t want to see people ignoring the fact that he isn’t at fault for 100% of the bad things that happen.

I think it's well established that his personally driven changes have been horrific for the platform. That's not some conspiracy nonsense, that's cold hard fact.

He's made himself the platform, therefore it is his fault.

Advertisers have list confidence and it's generally regarded as a laughing stock. They'll be teaching this as a cautionary tale in buisness schools for decades.
