Is anyone here going through the same situation? I usually consume content about films, series, anime, etc. But out of nowhere my feed started recommending racist, Nazi and right-wing content. I’m not saying that right-wingers are Nazis or racists, I’m saying that right-wing content is appearing to me alongside racist and Nazi content. Anyone here having the same problem?

    After all it is a social media that specifically leans to the right nowadays.

    I left it when my feed went quiet, lucky I didn’t get the treatment you seem to have.

      And yet the fucking giant crybabies will whine all day long about being censored and persecuted…

    I’m exasperated by this comment. It is 2024, and this question can be answered by countless people that have never used Twitter.

    Stop using the platform if you don’t like the far-right.

    Snarky answer: that’s all thats left on Twitter.

    Real answer. Elon is trying to push a right wing agenda, and it has taken two forms, first, amplify anyone paying for Twitter blue, which is simply a pay for play system. The second is, Elon is a right wing dipshit who has pushed mostly non right wingers off the platform.

    I don’t do ANYTHING on twitter other than occasionally click on a post by a local sports guy when I get a notification. Literally EVERYTHING else in my feed is right wing political non-sense. The extent of my interactions were hitting block early on, and when I realized that did nothing to give their “algorithm” a clue that I wasn’t interested I just started ignoring it entirely.

    The snarky answer is “because you’re on twitter”

    The better answer is because Elon Musk likes that kind of content and not only allows it to proliferate, but also encourages it. Not only that, the nazis and their sympathizers have loads of money to spend on ads and bots

    I stopped using X for the same reason, the fact that I am not American (not even European) and I see pro-trump tweets randomly in my feed is mind-boggling. The feed is often filled with misogynistic, religious, racist stuff. All thanks to pelon pusk.
