    Imagine trying winning chess when the board itself plays against you. Twitter/X must be dropped immediately, it’s a censorship-propaganda machine which is now only works for those who control it.

      Wasn’t that the case when progressives controlled it? Either way, fk X and all other social media services.

          Anything left of “pretend minorities don’t exist” is progressive to certain people.

          Dunno, but echoes of it were sounding like Tumblr 2.0

          Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey: I ‘fully admit’ our bias is ‘more left-leaning’

          Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey said on Saturday that he “fully admit[s]” Twitter employees share a largely left-leaning bias after facing accusations that conservatives are discriminated against on the social media platform.

          In an interview that aired Saturday on CNN, Dorsey said his company has a responsibility to be open about its political viewpoints, but to operate without bias when applying content policies to users.

          ”We need to constantly show that we are not adding our own bias, which I fully admit is … is more left-leaning,” Dorsey says.

            Ah.

            So you’re a “Libs of TikTok” guy. Conservatives call themselves Liberal and you believe them.

            Jack Dorsey is Libertarian, which is Republican-leaning.

              lol… Libertarians are classical liberals. They don’t align to a specific side.

              Libertarians nominated a degenerate Democrat.

              And why the FK are we talking about Jack anyway? I said Twitter was controlled by progressives… as in the majority of the org were leftists operating biasedly against their opposition.

                Defending the Libs of TikTok isn’t the flex you think it is.

                I’m only responding in the hopes you recognize this eventually and grow a bit of self-reflection over this situation. Good luck man.

                  I support anyone and everyone that exposes any and all facets of evil. So should you and any other sane human being.

                    No.

                    You, like other conservatives, are hooked on the ravenous red meat of outrage. And instead of trying to move away from outrage politics, you defend it. And more importantly, you do so while claiming to be of a different ideology because you’ve noticed that the word “conservative” is no longer looked well upon in some social circles.
