The Most Fresh & Cordial Political Thread Ever

[SunnySide]

An internal evaluation of Twitter’s recommendation algorithms concluded that they amplify right-leaning political content more than left-leaning content, company researchers announced Thursday, undercutting allegations by many conservatives who contend they are being censored on the platform.

Twitter researchers analyzed millions of 2020 tweets by elected officials in seven countries — Canada, France, Germany, Japan, Spain, Britain and United States — as well as posts that linked to political content from news outlets. Researchers relied on outside experts to determine what was right- or left-leaning rather than deciding for themselves.

“Our results reveal a remarkably consistent trend: In 6 out of 7 countries studied, the mainstream political right enjoys higher algorithmic amplification than the mainstream political left,” the researchers wrote in a 27-page report.

Lol…”let me find an opinion article that says the opposite”

Internal emails, communications, screenshots, data and second sourced quotes from employees at Twitter conformation of policy..bans, suppression of speech went only one way. And they outright lied about and now are caught

”I’ll ignore the facts and transparency straight from the source”

This is why they are mad, they can’t control false narratives anymore. It’s blown up in their face…so desperate attempts to prop up new false narratives to move away from the facts coming out

My favorite is this logic> 2018 “of course they aren’t censoring anybody you conspiracy nutbug” > now “of course they have been always censoring, it’s good and it’s always been”
