For all their cautious line-toeing in the run up to the 2020 election, platforms like Twitter and Facebook showed a remarkable appetite to make moderation decisions from which they had previously shirked. Though they had resisted the label earlier, social media platforms became clear arbiters of political truth in 2020 \u2013 when they saw democracy at risk and acted to protect it (<a href=\"https:\/\/slate.com\/technology\/2020\/11\/big-tech-conservative-bias-trump-election-voter-suppression.html\">as well as their bottom lines<\/a>).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Before the election started, we saw lots of moves from platform companies how they would handle the 2020 election. First, Twitter banned political ads. Facebook said it would not correct false claims in posts&nbsp;or&nbsp;ads from politicians. Throughout the summer, protests against police brutality and for racial justice swept the nation \u2013 often encouraged through social media activism (#BlackLivesMatter) but also threatened by it (such as when the president tweeted threats of violence against protestors). Twitter first signaled its appetite for policy enforcement against the president when it took action against the aforementioned tweet. Then, as the president made crystal clear that he would not accept any outcome other than victory, stirred violence, and refused to commit to a peaceful transfer of power \u2013 platforms moved, almost swiftly, to proactively (if also perhaps belatedly) protect democracy. Twitter labeled \u2013 and limited the reach \u2013 of an unprecedented amount of the president\u2019s tweets as they baselessly alleged voter fraud and falsely claimed electoral victory. It\u2019s unclear as to whether Facebook limited the reach of the president\u2019s posts, but it did append labels to them that pointed users in the direction of truthful contextual information about the election. Facebook also removed groups organizing around false claims of electoral fraud (\u201cStop the Steal\u201d groups) \u2013 though more continued to pop up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What is most remarkable about these&nbsp;actions is that they were taken specifically on the accounts of political leaders, especially the president himself. Finally, social media platforms acknowledged that political elites \u2013 both elected officials but also their surrogates \u2013 were the largest purveyors of political misinformation. What makes political misinformation from political leaders particularly pernicious is that it often casts politics in&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/full\/10.1177\/2056305120926495\">identitarian terms<\/a>&nbsp;\u2013 that media, and especially social media, are essential sites for constructing and conveying a politician\u2019s identity as well as the groups of constituents they purport to represent. Though the information \u2013 about \u201cstolen\u201d ballots or electoral fraud \u2013 is indeed false, these posts are not about the information per se. Instead, they communicate whose votes matter, whom should be seen as citizens, wield power, and ultimately what types of people get a say in electing presidents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Platforms are downstream from politics and political life. What animates our politics also animates our politics on platforms \u2013 and is shaped by platforms. While algorithms may put their thumb on the divisions in our country, they do not deterministically create them. Simply put: our social reality is reflected and distorted \u2013 no created \u2013 on social media platforms. We have a political problem in this country: right-wing misinformation, shorn up by making in-group identity threats salient and aimed at undermining public trust in institutions \u2013 the press, the electoral process, public health \u2013 is pervasive. Any attempt to craft these political issues as problems simply of social media and information risks centering another four years of academic, press, and press attention around the wrong targets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the wake of 2016, the press and academia focused on the informational quality of posts on social media. We trained our eye towards whether information in these posts was true or false, toward how many people potentially encountered false information, and whether or not it swayed voters towards electing Trump. As my colleagues and I&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/slate.com\/technology\/2020\/10\/misinformation-social-media-election-research-fear.html\">have argued<\/a>&nbsp;\u2013 this attention is misguided and has clearly had an outsized impact on&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/knightfoundation.org\/articles\/how-americans-view-tech-and-internet-companies-impact-on-the-2020-election\/\">public opinion about the effects of misinformation<\/a>. Research in this area should focus on how mis- and dis-information entrenches existing divides along the lines of our partisan identities. And it should embrace a focus on the very sort of elite communication against which the platforms \u2013 finally \u2013 took action. As Francesca Tripodi&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/slate.com\/technology\/2020\/11\/big-tech-conservative-bias-trump-election-voter-suppression.html\">observed<\/a>, \u201c\u2026 there is reason to believe [Trump] and other&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/ceos-facebook-google-twitter-testify-senate-hearing-political-bias\/\">conservative politicians<\/a>&nbsp;are priming their constituents to think that Big Tech rigged the 2020 election in Democrats\u2019 favor.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If the post-2020 story becomes informational in focus \u2013 not about what was on social media platforms, but what was moderated by social media platforms \u2013 we will again miss the mark.&nbsp;Another four-year cycle of public discourse, press attention, and research focus centered narrowly around platform moderation would be a mistake \u2013 this is not a platform problem, but a political problem. And Trump, the Republican party, conservative elites, racial structures, and more broadly \u2013 politics \u2013 should be at the center of and lead research on social media moderation.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dr Shannon C.
