Twitter humorously states that they are committed to ensuring the enforcement of Twitter Rules as fair, unbiased, proportional... and they outwardly look the part with their documentation. Twitter publishes counts around legal demands to remove content, government requests for account information, and actions taken on user accounts. It stops short of showing what was moderated and amplified. https://transparency.twitter.com/ Given we have smoking evidence that the actions are unfair, biased, and not proportional... this proposal is a great place to start gaining trust. Transparent content moderation. https://sriramk.com/transparent-content-moderation +Transparent amplification to start.

Trump announces he is running for Prez again
jross replied to mspart's topic in Non Wrestling Topics
For me, that was because his achievements directly affected my pocketbook for the better. -
25% of the USA population have Twitter accounts versus <1% watch Fox News. At what point is a business big enough to warrant regulation consideration? Twitter warrants consideration. Fox News is a small fry.

What has Biden done well, and how has it directly affected you? When my pocketbook is hit this hard, the Biden team better cure cancer if he wants me to see past the red. High inflation, less buying power, and my net worth dropped over 40% since he came to power. His Covid policies destroyed small businesses, coerced me into vaccinating to work/travel, and influenced a ten-year subordinate employee to quit my company. It's impossible to look past his incoherent speech and bad character to credit good achievements when his actions negatively impact my daily life. -

I'm torn between his policies and the drama. I don't want to vote for Trump in 2024 because of the drama, but Biden/Harris policies are bad. If we get a 2020 election repeat, it's the USA saying FU to the people. We the people have little to look forward to. One would think the next president has nowhere to go but up. -

My grandmother lived with my mother. She went shopping, walked, and mingled with family before the pandemic. I'd see her every few weeks. After the pandemic, the news programmed her (in my opinion) to stay home. She would not leave her bedroom when my family visited for two years, and she largely never came out of her room, even when it was just my folks with her. Her physical health degraded until she was put into a nursing home, and she died a month later. She never caught Covid, but she certainly stopped living and stayed glued to the news. -
Could those nayers back the blue and vote against a bill due to its verbiage?

My initial reasons for liking Trump. His success with quickly accomplishing what the government could not with the Wollman ice skating rink His real estate stories helped me have the confidence to buy a rental property 15 years ago The positivity I felt when he talked about America’s greatness His talk on bringing more manufacturing back to the USA He was an outsider that brought an optimism to drain the swamp But I did not vote for him in 2016. What I liked when he was president The economy flourished and my 401k soared Healthcare service cost transparency USA first. Better trade deals with and accountability from other countries. Also brought manufacturing back. Reduced troops over seas Low unemployment Responsibility with regulations Tougher on illegal immigration He increased awareness to fake news and corruption The battle between trying to run the country like a business owner and the the gov power checks and balances His ability to achieve results while big tech, the media, and left gov was against him How his presidency impacted me My 401k increased My home and rental property values increased My salary increased My tax deductions decreased I was able to price shop health care services Twitter became insufferable I stopped using google as a primary search engine I started consuming more news sources to address misinformation I began to wish that California would be allowed to secede My son began struggling with the foreign language immersion school during the pandemic and I switched him to normal school. How the pandemic was handled by both presidents has had negative impacts. The media destroyed my grandmas quality of life. The covid policy resulted in several of my favorite businesses closing for good, work attrition, and work layoffs. Now I have less buying power and raises/promotions are still frozen. Note: there is plenty not to like with Trump but above was my positives. -

I tried. At a glance, it says Musk is behaving similarly against the left as before against the right. The entirety of the article is one of the worst writing styles I've encountered. I'm not alone (writing style criticism). I've tried to answer your questions on even sensitive topics. Will you answer questions? Which of the 16 media storylines I shared earlier do you believe is true vs. a hoax? There is no trap; I believe they are all hoaxes that many on the left believe. I'm sure there are many hoaxes that I unknowingly believe. On behaviors... you ask Theo for evidence on media misinformation, and he provides it, and you provide no response. I actually want information and facts to expand my views. I don't want trolling and penis jokes that deflect from the harder concern :). Did you read the google censorship article the first or second time it was provided?

Haha. I like 'gish gallop.' Denied facts are still facts.

That is unreadable. I will assume it says something is bad and go with it. Transparency is the way to trust. https://sriramk.com/transparent-content-moderation https://blog.twitter.com/en_us/topics/company/2022/twitter-2-0-our-continued-commitment-to-the-public-conversation

Wow. Listen to this Harvard democrat describe what occurred in 2016 and would occur in 2020. https://www.c-span.org/video/?c4941947/user-clip-big-tech-staggering-amount-power-ban-speech-destroy-rivals-shape-culture

Harvard dude was a Hilary Clinton voter that studies behavior for a living and testified before the judiciary subcommittee. https://www.c-span.org/video/?c4814284/user-clip-testimony-dr-robert-epstein

You'd think so given I own and have lost a bunch of money on weed stock.

What were your thoughts on what that Democrat has already provided evidence for? https://www.judiciary.senate.gov/imo/media/doc/Epstein Testimony.pdf

Bing has an alternative search suggestion from google that you can see right now. It's the word that the left used to describe Musk before he expressed his desire to vote republican for the first time in his life, buying Twitter and exposing government coordination from the Trump and (primarily) Biden campaigns.

The writer may be laughable. For clarity, none of those auto-suggestions were on the writer's list either in 2019. He typed "Donald Trump is," and the browser auto-suggested completions. When I tried the same test in 2021, I found that google no longer reveals auto-suggestions for 'Donald Trump is', and the other browsers provided 'pleasant' scrubbed suggestions. You can try other combinations and find significant differences in auto-search suggestions and search results today. If it is showing what everybody typed in before, then you might acknowledge that across three engines in 2019 for "Joe Biden is," you see one positive as 'going to cure cancer.' The negative results are toast, too old to run, done, creepy, idiot, joke. Most of Trump's are negative too with the moron, idiot, joke plus some creativity with fat, antichrist, and illuminati confirmed. Unlike Biden, Trump's results had positives like my president and awesome. 'Going to win' could be a question or a statement, so that context of positive/negative is unknown.

Musk will be discredited in short order. It is the people's way. What will it accomplish?
