Jack Dorsey Shares Controversial Article

Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey aroused controversy after labeling a Medium article "Great" that claimed there's no "Bipartisan way forward" in the United States and that the country is engaged in a "Fundamental conflict between two worldviews that must be resolved in short order."

Dorsey shared the Medium article on his personal Twitter account Thursday night, with the accompanying acclaim that it was a "Great read.".

Author and media consultant Peter Leyden and political commentator Ruy Teixeira argued in the article titled "The Great Lesson of California in America's New Civil War" that America is already in the midst of a second major domestic conflict of sorts and the way out is for the rest of the country to imitate California.

Dorsey's tweet brings up a more fundamental question: If he agrees that the country is in the state of crisis that Leyden and Teixeira believe, does he feel an obligation to use all tools at his disposal to help the Democrats "Win" this alleged second Civil War? Is Twitter - a social media site with considerable influence over the media's day-to-day narrative - a vehicle for Dorsey to help accomplish this goal?

If the country is in as dire of a position as the Medium article claimed, how can Dorsey not feel an obligation to help steer the country away from collapse?

Dorsey did not respond to The Daily Caller News Foundation's request for comment via Twitter after he disputed DCNF reporter Peter J. Hasson's tweet that he "Loves" Leyden's piece.

Twitter's CEO loves this article about driving conservatives from public life and turning the rest of the country into California in the "New civil war." Literally what it's about https://t.
