      Just like Google, the fixation is far more on engagement farming than content quality management.

      Trump stuff gets the clicks, so you’re going to see a lot more of it. Also, expect to see an increasing wave of ☯👺 𝐏ᑌSşƳ ιᑎ вι𝕠 🐤🐧 tier posts.

        Don’t forget about the soldiers with huge boots over their prosthetic legs. It’s their birthday, all 10,000 of them. So sad. Did you see the young man who made an impressive sculpture of a dog? Or how about the other 7 million of them? Dog sculpting is really taking off I hear.

            Idk about latest. I deleted my FB account a while ago, but every time I see anything from there it’s bizarre AI generated crap.

    I mean I see the sensibility after reading the article, especially when applied to every other politician and the like. But… Trump is hate… Its all he spews everywhere…

      This doesn’t really matter anyways, he started his own social network, he doesn’t really want to participate in the social networks he can’t control

    Please reply to my post with any random emoji if you had tangible relief and improved relationships when trump was kicked off Twitter.

    I noticed an immediate and drastic difference in my work environment, for example. I could elaborate but would ramble

    No shock there, Musky just straight up announced his support for Trump after the assassination attempt last night.

    They would be stupid not to. At this point it’s almost guaranteed he will win the presidency. Nobody would like to make an enemy of POTUS.

      You get the downvotes, but in a way you’re right. With scotus ruling the next president could do whatever they want as an official act and there would be little to no recourse. Sure they could sue but that would almost definitely get tied up in courts for a long time. Mr. Robot is just covering his own ass. That ruling by scotus will be the downfall of the wrong people are able to take advantage of it.

        “Just covering his ass” this attitude is why our country is fucked. Well as long as it benefits the millionaire personally to be a coward and sell us out, then that’s okay

        These millionaires want all the power but refuse accountability. Why give him an out?

          I never once said it was ok. You know I should personally ring him up and tell him that his choices aren’t so chill.

        I just explained the reasoning behind Facebook’s actions. Now everyone is calling me a fascist. I’m a progressive FFS. You guys are out of your minds.

          Then why don’t you edit your post to make your meaning clearer? Because if everyone is misunderstanding, then it’s probably not all our fault.
