Is anyone here going through the same situation? I usually consume content about films, series, anime, etc. But out of nowhere my feed started recommending racist, Nazi and right-wing content. I’m not saying that right-wingers are Nazis or racists, I’m saying that right-wing content is appearing to me alongside racist and Nazi content. Anyone here having the same problem?

      Same. And they are in this persons feed cause they are paying money to amplify hate. We allow corporations to make money off people spreading toxic ideology through the “veil” of advertising. We really need to fix up citizens united or whatever it was. Can’t recall which recent fuckery it was.

      It’s really fucking hard for them to deny it at this point. Hate and racism has become their entire platform and the only reason they even have a chance of winning is because of decades of brainwashing idiots with propaganda.

        Me: Republicans are hateful

        Republican: not me I’m one of the good ones, a paleo conservative!

        Me: then vote Libertarian

        Republican: oh I’ll sit at a table with the bad ones

        That’s part of it, but without exploiting the massive failures of the US electoral system they’d never have enough people in the government to be able to take it over like they have.

      When people say they aren’t Nazi’s, but all they do is tweet about Nazi’s, and support Nazi ideas, and defend Nazi’s…

      Well, then yes I think they may, in fact, be Nazi’s.
