There was no bias. It was just a recent example. The reason why that was the only thing that compelled you to comment was because you found it offensive.

Right. It offends me that more people don't find this interesting. I can admit to that. Not sure why some of y'all can't admit simple, obvious observations about yourselves.

This appeared to be bias to me since the only two examples of supposed bot-induced narrative formations were in favor of conservative ideals. I didn't read any mention of the propaganda prevalent in social media, like facebook, for example, that censors conservative messages and promotes liberal ones, or twitter with its shadow banning.

I didn't find it offensive. I have grown accustomed to this sort of behavior from the media. I just thought it was an interesting side point and wanted to call attention to it.

Not that I expect you care, but very little actually offends me and I don't have to be offended to spot something that doesn't appear to be right and say something about it.

I can admit when I'm offended. I'm just not offended by what I perceive as bias against conservatives or conservative ideals in the article. I just wanted to call that out so that others could be offended if they wanted to be
