It’s a total culture shock any time I check twitter. After browsing user-moderated spaces (like lemmy or reddit) for so long, I’ve gotten used to very rarely seeing anything more than a mildly conservative opinion. Seeing extreme right-wing stuff, outside of spammers trying to shock people, is almost non-existent.

Then you open twitter and get reminded what largely unmoderated internet looks like again.

There’s still good content mixed in with everything, but right wing outrage bait is absolutely winning the algorithm battle over there.

Feel free! I wasn’t quite sure where to post this one.

At this point, people seem to know that he’s going to do something silly.

Although someone suggested that he may also privately send them the photoshop they requested.

It seems like shorthand for signs that has been used enough that it’s basically normal now, like “lite” instead light, or “donut” instead of doughnut.

Careful, you might start a brand new conspiracy in certain circles with a comment like that.

I wonder what Abe and a samurai would’ve talked about.

Hyup.

I don’t think this guy would pull that. He’s pretty popular for his photoshop skills.

BOY! GIRL!

I just read the article and will definitely be watching the video when I can. What a wild story.

Excuse me, what kind of technology…?

Unfortunately the title makes it sound like they’re talking about undecided voters in general, when the story is about a specific group of people that were interviewed.

Reading that article felt like I had fallen for a bait and switch.

(edit: “Clickbait and switch”? Is that a thing?)

Well that’s good, because I’m probably going to keep posting these to lemmy when I find them.

The newest ones are basically the size of small dogs. It’s ridiculous.

It’s awesome to live in a time when even 50% of Republicans support gay marriage. If someone had told me that in 2005, I wouldn’t have believed it.

I’d give a Doctor Who / Spiderverse movie a watch.

Lol, I came over around the time of the reddit blackout, but I created on startrek.website first. This one came a little later.

Here ya go.

There was a story recently about a depressing number of web domains disappearing. Everybody just gravitates to the big corporate sites now, and it makes the internet ecosystem boring and less diverse.

It’s the equivalent of Walmarts running every mom & pop store out of town.

These are the subtle types of errors that are much more likely to cause problems than when it tells someone to put glue in their pizza.
