I follow several dozen very left wing / progressive accounts on twitter and haven't seen any of them on my timeline for weeks. Examples:
Dan Cohen, Max Blumenthal, Abby Martin, Jimmy Door, Mike Prysner, Aaron Mate, Chris Hedges, Ron Placone, Sarah Abdallah, and the Real News Network, along with several Assange supporters and related accounts.
I had to go and turn on explicit notifications for all of them to start seeing content. It's extremely obvious that this is not just one account getting accidentally flagged.
- sudosysgen 6y agoThere were also people banned on reddit r/politics for posting about various human rights abuses from the US and US police. I think there might be something to it too.
- colordrops 6y ago/r/politics was taken over by David Brock and crew around 2016. /r/conspiracy has seen a takeover by the right wing equivalents over the last year or so, since the banning of /r/t_d
- Daishiman 6y agoIt was taken over long before banning of t_d. It was sock puppet accounts and pizzagate stuff way before.
