I think Twitter does bias a little left, especially recently. Part of it is I think a lot of conservatives have left the platform. I don't think it's some mass conspiracy to silence the right though.

I think Facebook biases to the right. I also don't think it's some mass conspiracy to silence the left.

Just gonna ignore me? Sounds about right for someone who talks the talk but doesn’t walk the walk.

FB has gotten old and the users who are active lean right. But it’s much more of a user-controlled echo chamber than Twitter where most people you interact with are not your “friends” but well-known people and businesses. The tweets they create and those responses are handled much differently. Basically, I don’t think it’s fair to the compare the two.

idk about that dude but maybe

here's an example where I know tradcons are favored from today

charles barkley is trending on sports twitter #1 for his comments last night

the top comment on this "trend" is from candace owens who calls out LeBron and praises chuck and shaq LINK

so in this example…. tradcons win and soys lose
