‘Twitter Is Gearing Up To Interfere In The Election’

Milo Yiannopoulos:
‘Last week, a report from BuzzFeed claimed that Twitter was about to implement an algorithmic news feed, a departure from the chronologically-ordered tweets which users have grown accustomed to, and by which the platform is defined.
…..For conservatives, this is bad news. If our feeds are ordered by algorithm, this effectively means that Twitter, rather than users, decides which tweets should be seen. Tweets that the algorithm decides are “uninteresting” to users might not be seen at all. Needless to say, I am already receiving DMs from fans claiming that my tweets are not showing up in their feeds.
…With an algorithm, Twitter could easily control the content users receive on a politically partisan basis. For a modern social media company like Twitter, nestled in the ultra-progressive San Francisco Bay Area, it wouldn’t be unprecedented, would it?…’

    Twitter is the ghetto of the Internet dominated by the Leftards.

    Unfortunately, 48% of those under 30 in America simply love it!http://falfn.com/CrusaderRabbit/wp-content/plugins/wp-monalisa/icons/wpml_negative.gif

      You would be surprised to find it’s being hijacked by conservatives quite magnificently.

      The moment the #resistcapitalism hashtag started trending it was immediately inundated by people telling the socialists to move out of their parent’s basement and get a job.

      By rough count 70 to 80 percent of tweets were mocking the hashtag, not supporting it.

        But the majority of all tweets focus on which teeny bopper pop star has the widest butt etc,etc,so at the end of the day twitter is a boil on societies ass.

        • Bo Chandler says:

          No point in stomping exclusively around your home ground.

          If it weren’t for conservatives pushing back on Twitter and Facebook then the left wouldn’t have had to show its colours by censoring them.

          Apply pressure. Force errors.

    The financial well being of Silicon Valley digital robber barons are dependent on ephemeral laws like software copyright, patent law and the internet and cable regs of the FCC. Which behooves them to make sure the people they’ve screwed time and time again – conservatives – don’t end up with the whip in their hand.

    • Ronbo says:

      Since Obama has successful turned the office of a limited power constitutional president into that of an elective dictator, the next president, which I hope will be Trump, can slice and dice anything Congress makes law, the federal bureaucrats regulate and the Supreme Court attempts to make legal by way of his pen and phone.

      I hope the Leftards learn to love the dictatorship they created.

      But somehow I don’t think they will when the ax falls on their necks. :-)

      • Bo Chandler says:

        The smartest thing Trump could do with most of these bureaucracies is to say this:

        “Wrap it up. You’re all fired. I’m giving you all a year’s salary to sit on your ass for two simple reasons. One, because under that circumstance the public will have no sympathy for you, and two, because temporarily paying you to do nothing will result in a better outcome than permanently paying you to continue fucking up this country.”

          There are entire government agencies that have been built via executive orders.They can be gone,instantly with the stroke of a pen.

          • Bo Chandler says:

            Amen. And in the current economic climate I don’t think the people living on skid row are going to shed many tears for the overpaid, underworked dickheads in the public sector.
