What’s BS? I didn’t read the whole article but these sites have algorithms that will feed you information and stories it thinks you will like based on keywords you use - all to get you to use the platform more often and generate ad revenue for Facebook.

They went down a rabbit hole. Should’ve just let it be a free speech platform. Report crimes and otherwise let the users be their own activists. But that’s not the way to maximize revenues.

I am Conservative, post many Conservative things on Facebook and they never fed me Q-Anon or other conspiracy type stuff, in 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019, 2020 or since; not even Proud Boys or similar.

What I do know is Facebook does censor, restrict, ghost and deplatform Conservative pages and they want their own Liberal-Left agenda enclosed in government social media rules so they can pretend they are not in fact what they are and want to be - Liberal-Left censors - but then just doing what the government tells them to do. That is the narrative their phony “whistleblowers” have in Congress now.
