Twitter should automatically and quickly delete your tweet if it is bad.

Welcome to real life. How about taking responsibility for what you write? Just think twice about what you're going to say. And if you say something people don't like, well too bad... just live with it. Everybody in the world does this everyday.

Being a douche is bad. Being a douche and try to hide it? Well, even worse. Now I really don't want to follow you.

Being a douche is bad

That's vague and subjective. Your definition of "douche" could be far removed from mine and even for douches I don't really paint things in terms of "good" or "bad". I could use this service and see it as a way to protect me from accidently offending people who take life far more seriously than I do. Hell, another HN poster has already taken it upon himself to vet my tweets for offensive things I shouldn't be saying in public.

I find this response rather strange.

Why not also argue against stop loss orders in the stock market?

Hardly the same thing.

stop loss orders cost money.

And stop-loss orders involve money. Twitter does (should?) not.
