That's a solid ass algorithm Yup I went through a whack-a-mole thing of blocking Musk/MTG/etc a couple weeks ago. I think the only MAGA account I left alone is Nick Adams because he cracks me up and I can’t tell if it’s self parody. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oblong Posted March 11, 2023 Share Posted March 11, 2023 I checked my For You tab last night and it was surprisingly effective. I spent about 15 minutes reading things in various topics. No BS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CMRivdogs Posted March 11, 2023 Share Posted March 11, 2023 It's been a bit of a hodge podge for me. Some folks who I follow end up in "for you" while following gives me people or topics I really don't care about. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For some "journalists" it's a way to avoid censorship errrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr editors. I tend to associate it with the types of commentators who tend to comment on literally everything that happens regardless of their knowledge base (or lack thereof) on a given topic. Think Matt Yglesias, for instance... I am not entirely clear what makes his opinions have more value than anyone elses, but nonetheless people will apparently separate themselves from their money for the ability to read them.

Tiger337 Posted March 11, 2023 Share Posted March 11, 2023 I have blocked a lot of MAGAs including Musk and MTG, but others keep re-tweeting them. I also muted all the people that have been saying for 7 years that Trump is in trouble, going to be indicted, going to jail. It used to give me hope, but it now just depresses me because I know it will never happen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seth Abramson probably had a 234 tweetstorm explaining why it was to happen and that he details it all his whatever his new book will be.

It was a post highlighting Kari Lake's tweet about "globalist elites", which, everyone who's even moderately up to date knows what that really means. Interesting because Arizona is only slightly less Jewish than the US as a whole, and right on the money if you remove two states from the equation. A lot of Jews like to settle in that particular desert, so she must be punting on their support. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CMRivdogs Posted March 23, 2023 Share Posted March 23, 2023 (edited) Sometimes I wonder if he even reviews his scripts before going on the air. But then again I would probably wager he's laughing all the way to the bank. Edited March 23, 2023 by CMRivdogs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
