The most fascist places on the internet are not, like, Instagram, but 4chan and spin-offs

And I’m sure you agree algorithms are engineered to keep people online and mad and this is to benefit profit accumulation

damn, due. daddy wasted all that money on "higher education" but all it got you was 1300 votes and bad opinions
Our website was not fascist until the state department and Israel started targeting us as an outlet for their messaging and recruitment.
It was originally a trans and troll hangout. We went after scientology and Hal Turner. And we got them.

It is THE spawning ground bigoted memes right now, like a far right tiktok.

4chan and other spinoffs are generally cesspits, but they use facebook and twitter to recruit more
4chan pales in comparison in audience and influence to facebook. By several orders of magnitude.
This is kind of like is hockey more popular in LA or Winnipeg? Way more hockey fans in LA
Are you serious? Lmao
Will, do you know how words work?
You are like if someone made an LLM to be as deliberately obtuse as possible.
The degenerate choose your own adventure environment, created by whom Will? For what purpose? Some kind of money piling maybe?
Maybe if you had picked up a single book in your lifetime, you wouldn’t be so confused about basic concepts that have already been defined. People yell at you because you are an incurious simpleton that lectures other people as if you are an intellectual
In any case, I think Will is right that the profit motive is not necessarily the problem here.
But interesting to see you become Stalinist about news decentralization.
What do you think algorithms are trying to capitalize on and why?
Dont be silly now
isn't it nice to learn concepts that explain phenomenon?
You absolute pile of dry powdered milk.
could that be a possibility? could we even try something like that perhaps?
The wealthy owners have just made it easier for people to find
Not having advertisers helps too.
now go ahead and get mad at this characterization, that's step two after you expose yourself
