Yeah, maybe we just have different politics and I'm too dismissive of alternative worldviews.

Still though, I get like Matt Gaetz' tweets recommended to me. Does anyone like that dude? How is this happening? Why on earth would I want that? I feel like all this conservative stuff is surfaced by the application to me.

I got notifications, on my dang phone, for the dumbest fucking takes. I don't get them for liberal people. Possible I am just in the demographic of people they think would swing conservative so they target me.

It’s not just you. I echo your sentiments.

I use Twitter for tech, but my feed is now conservative politics, gore video, & tech tweets intermingled.

This is funny to read since this is basically what conservatives experienced for the last ten years on Twitter pre-Elon.
