Support for ICE is in minority (although a large one). I don't think algorithm would suppress negative opinions on it, especially among viewership of celebrities that don't appeal to the right side of political spectrum.

You should qualify your statement with "amongst the few people I talk to and the narrow spectrum of media I consume." Also, do you mean minority of the total US population or minority of the voting population? For one reference point I fully support ICE. And I think it's wild you have local and state politicians encouraging actions against federal agents who are enforcing federal law.

  More Americans support than oppose abolishing ICE. The Gestapo, too, was federal agents enforcing federal law. https://today.yougov.com/politics/articles/53939-more-americans-support-than-oppose-abolishing-ice-immigration-minneapolis-shooting-poll https://today.yougov.com/politics/articles/53939-more-americ...

    In this case can you honestly say federal law is wrong?

  Enforcing federal law by shooting a fleeing woman in the head and a restrained nurse in the back? Boy, what fair and just law.

  I didn't say it's the effect of the censorship. I just said it's unlikely to be the effect of normal operation of their algorithm. If the actual explanation was the accidental outage then I was right.
