Perhaps I didn’t explain my opinion clearly, but I think we might have different definitions for what constitutes bias. You’re suggesting that a difference in outcomes means something is wrong or unfair with the algorithm. But what if it is that right wing users simply engage more, or that the right wing news outlets put out better content, or other such factor? I wouldn’t view the increased algorithmic amplification as problematic if there were such root causes behind it. Put another way, I am taking an equality lens (equality of opportunity) rather than an equity lens (equality of outcomes). If we take an equity lens, then you can start questioning why any number of things don’t get the same amplification - it doesn’t have to stop at a binary of “left versus right”.
