There was a time platforms like Twitter tried to remove obvious conspiracy theories from their trending pages. But this weekend’s events showed how platforms are increasingly content to let us choose our own realities platformer.news/monday-newslet

@caseynewton @aulia they aren’t “resigned”, they are actively working to elect him. They are overjoyed at the very thought of a Trump presidency.

What kind of nonsense is “resigned”?

@bynkii
The US supreme court just reinenterpreted the 14th amendment - trump shouldn't even be allowed anywhere the presidency, but here we are.

@caseynewton

but crazy shit gets them more attention for advertisers and data mining. the companies that favor crap will win the market. live filtering means large platforms will have a huge say on what's considered true. that's not good for civics/journalism either. again, we need decentralization and no ads or algos.

Sad times. We are watching the decline of democracy in 2x speed.
