Culture is downstream from law. While oldfags understand the importance of archive everything, many users still direct link to twatter and other sites controlled by progressives out of imbecilic laziness. Banning posts from these types of sites would foster the good habit of archiving, which both deprives the enemy of resources and preserves a record nominally outside of their control.

I'm for banning twitter link posts just because "some asshole said something on twitter" without context is so low effort that it isn't worthy of a post.
But at the same time the forum doesn't get so many posts that stuff falls off the front page too quickly so no reason to curate until we get more content.
This isn't even a proposal to ban those low effort posts, although adding a little extra work could have that as an effect. It would merely force people to post the archive instead, and a direct link could still be put in the comments if someone felt so inclined.
