I think Shatner is complicated because (a) he's 95 years old, and can't be expected to be fully "in touch," and (b) he has definitely had some questionable people handling his social media over the years.

Yeah, it's shatner so you one expects him to be crass, and you one forgets he was the first star trek captain. and agreed with the ideas being shown on screen (unlike, IDK, Barclay's actor)

just, don't ask him how many horses he owns

It’s possible on a regular basis.

However, as with other high profile accounts, one expects that messages that are high profile would be cleared with the person under whose name the official account is made.

I really dislike Takei's one (Jay Kuo) because of how shamelessly he uses it to promote his own substack sometimes.. and because of a specific substack post of his where he said "oh no it's so bad Arizona got abortion banned.. but there's a silver lining, maybe they'll learn to vote blue the next time" or some shit like that.

+3M people losing their body autonomy and the first thing you think is "hey this can be a good thing for our campaign"?? fucking ghoul...

I do recall an interview with Brent Spiner where he said something to that effect. I figured he (William Shatner) wrote some of them. I forgot about that.

Looking at the downvotes, I don't think anybody realized you meant "abandon Xitter," not "abandon using their platform for the greater good."
