Exactly. Just show me tweets well-sorted and let me decide. Don’t tell me “here is truth” (which is what “here is context” is intended to look like).

You can’t. Because the implementation is botched.
> Nobody wants that.
Nobody wants community notes as is. Anyone who wants them only wants them because it’s a great way to disseminate disinformation.
> With community notes you can choose to ignore the context
Just like you could have chosen to ignore lies in the actual tweet without any community notes adding yet another layer of lies, only harder to ignore because it is now called “context” but really is just some guy’s opinion that won a popularity contest.
The context should just be a top reply, but then who would pay Elon 8 bucks to show up first?
