Thank goodness I have no social media is all I can say. All that drama!
You mean all the cheating? I love it when those people get caught.
You don't consider GAW social media? Kek
I never did any social media until Truth. Then when Elon bought Twitter I joined to redpill. Its funny every time I get up to 500 or so followers the count suddenly drops below 100.
I have not had a bot account follow me in several weeks. I was getting 2-3 per day that I had to block for a very long time.
You are popular. I don't have any. LOL
On Truth I've had 3 new followers in the last week that won the powerball and are giving away $3500 to the first so many new followers. Maybe I should report them as spammers?
So what was exposed by the recent Laura Loomer & Co would fit this category?
I am betting there are a tone of pro “narrative” accounts, that push an artificial, non organic agenda, maybe he has figured it out.
You can start to see them pop up on Substack now too, loads of pro-vegan, eco warrior crap.
Shilling for shekels is a big problem if we are to be taken seriously as the news source now.
There was a long twitter thread posted here a couple days ago that shows the link between influencers, the money and a PAC. Loomer was one of them. They get paid big money for posts that the PAC suggests.
See that on X also.
Is it still manipulation when Elon does it?
Asking for a friend.
I used to be such a big fan of Elon... especially when he bought Twitter.
Actually, I had never used this platform before. I signed in for the first time since creating an account only because I believed in his mission:
Free Speech. The public square of ideas, where all perspectives could be heard, discussed, and debated so that the best ideas could rise to the top.
When they released the first Twitter Files, and Elon promised to open-source the algorithm, I found that extremely brave and transparent.
But then, something changed…
Twitter was designed to be two things: a data collection center and a propaganda arm.
I realized that Elon’s goal wasn’t to change it… but rather to use it as it was originally designed—for his own purposes.
The algorithm, contrary to public belief, has never been open-sourced. It actually works the same way it was originally designed: grouping people based on association, assigning a social credit score, boosting ideas the platform wants promoted, and suppressing those it deems contrary.
And I’m weird like that… once I realize someone is lying about one thing, I lose trust in everything they do.
To me, honesty is binary. You are either an honest person, or you are not. There is no such thing as “sometimes lies.”
It’s amazing to see how many people are still here, fighting the good fight, fully aware that the system is rigged against them.
And it’s disheartening to see how many people still don’t understand what this place really is.
“At least Elon gave us free speech.”
He didn’t give you free speech… he took control of it.
LOL. I would say so.
"I got ratio'd for my shit take on immigration, they must be bots!"
Elon is a fucking child.
