      Meta is even worse.

      Even people who were/are on the right are noticing it.

      Tom Segura isn’t a great guy, but I saw a clip of one of his podcasts where they were talking about Instagram. Any post anyway related to a Black person is just gonna be filled with comments saying the n word.

      As fucked up as it is, TikTok appears to be the only big one that’s removed hate speech for a while now. It’s just become incredibly normalized which is why the wealthy keep gobbling up social media.

      They want a race war, a culture war, anything to stop 99% of the population from figuring out the 1% have been fighting a class war for decades.

      It’s all a distraction to stop people from talking about why billionaires are fucking over everyone else and we’re not stopping it.

        Can you elaborate on ‘Tom Segura isn’t a great guy’? I think he’s funny and I’m wondering if there’s something I’m missing.

          It’s not like he’s a giant asshole himself…

          But he’s friends with Joe Rogan and agrees with him on a lot of stuff. And has said he enjoys “trolling” even about racial issues.

          So he’s at best just tolerable of assholes with extremist views, which is why it was notable even he has pointed out how bad social media is getting.
