    I mean I see the sensibility after reading the article, especially when applied to every other politician and the like. But… Trump is hate… Its all he spews everywhere…

      Huh, I took it more as

      Trump broke platform rules -> Trump punished with restrictions

      Other politicians didn’t break rules -> no restrictions

      … Fear of public perception and loss of advertising revenue …

      Trump restrictions lifted -> now it’s “fair” for Trump to do whatever he likes on Facebook and be treated the same as politicians who don’t break platform rules

      It only makes sense when optimizing for ad revenue and there we go, I just answered my own question. Let’s not pretend this is about actual fairness or objectivity on Facebook’s part.

        I’m not going to verify, because thats a long fucken time to spend scrolling an app I no longer use, but they claim they never had to use any of the strict repercussions. Do what you will with that. I know its about ads but this same stuff could happen to one of us running off of “Eat the Rich” or some shit. The article also mentions some obligation of posting to Truth Social first.

      This doesn’t really matter anyways, he started his own social network, he doesn’t really want to participate in the social networks he can’t control

      Just like Google, the fixation is far more on engagement farming than content quality management.

      Trump stuff gets the clicks, so you’re going to see a lot more of it. Also, expect to see an increasing wave of ☯👺 𝐏ᑌSşƳ ιᑎ вι𝕠 🐤🐧 tier posts.

        Don’t forget about the soldiers with huge boots over their prosthetic legs. It’s their birthday, all 10,000 of them. So sad. Did you see the young man who made an impressive sculpture of a dog? Or how about the other 7 million of them? Dog sculpting is really taking off I hear.

          Checking their comment history, Natolover is just a down vote troll. No use relying, although that is a nice map

            At first glance I was like ‘why is there a deep red state in the Midwest?’ then I remembered Indiana. I passed through Bloomington a while ago and it was sad, old punk graffiti covered up with big trump signs.

              It’s honestly a shame. Indianapolis is a really fun smaller city that’s well laid out for visitors. It’s just swimming in a sea of suck.

                Hoosier here…yuuuup

                The pockets of blue are growing a little bit in some of the more affluent areas just outside of Indianapolis like Carmel (or, at least, it’s more purple than it was 20 years ago).

                I’m hoping as remote work continues to grow, people move here to change the place because of how cheap it is - even in like the heart of Indianapolis lol

    Please reply to my post with any random emoji if you had tangible relief and improved relationships when trump was kicked off Twitter.

    I noticed an immediate and drastic difference in my work environment, for example. I could elaborate but would ramble

    No shock there, Musky just straight up announced his support for Trump after the assassination attempt last night.
