Reading the other comments in this Twitter thread it seems like it's gotten much worse than in the years before. It's seems so much more political and radicalized now.

It's more politicized..now?

More politicized than when literal politicians and three letter agencies were determining what should and shouldn't trend? How can anyone say that?

Is anti-confirmation bias a thing? More likely to notice politics when it is not your own politics.
I mean, non-conservative opinions are pretty bland. The apparent MAGA strategy of burning it all down, well…

I’ll say it’s very, very noticable.

Or perhaps you are blind to how outrageous non-conservative opinions can be?
Potentially? I’m probably far more likely to ascribe them to a few isolated lunatics instead of the whole political faction
