"Trump Derangement Syndrom" is when you hear Trump talking and immediately think "That is a deranged person"

It does sometimes show me right wing stuff after i watch "chuds are stupid and here's why" video essays because it thinks they're the same thing. Worst I get is conspiracy stuff because I watch a lot of videos about weird stuff and crypids and ufos, but again it can't tell the difference between the Michelin man aliens and qanon crap.

The point is, we don't really know what percentage follows him for the same reason as you do. I imagine pretty much everyone who bothers to have a truth social account would be interested in what that guy has to say one way or the other.

But yeah, people who hatefollow him are still boosting his ego.

I used to get a lot of those, then they branched into "black people listen to Weird Al" and then my algorithm got super chuddy for a hot second because one of those channels are full-on Trump-lovers.

Also when I was watching some videos that featured Yasmin Finney, I got a whole bunch of sponsored ads for some truly horrific anti-trans content disguised as LGBTQ-friendly. I switched to solely watching that guy who unblocks culverts for a while and now my algorithm is back to normal.

Understood.

Truth Social is a comparatively small echo chamber, much smaller than I originally thought, for the Trmbo soapbox and when you factor in how much value his supporters seem to place in Lie Antisocial it’s pretty funny.

But I get your point, I mitigate any inflation to Trumps ego by shitposting his Truths and engaging with his misguided supporters, which amuses me.

There’s not a drat thing any of them can say to me that I haven’t already read here at some point or another so it’s water off a ducks back.

For a while during the lead up to the 2020 election every thing I watched on YouTube was preceded by an un-skippable trump ad full of infuriating lies about Biden and other maga bullshit with no option to not show the ad again like many ads have. I’m hoping the son of a bitch doesn’t have the budget for that this time around.

A study recently published in the Journal of the American College of Surgeons found that states that restricted abortion access from 2018 to 2020 had a 75 percent higher rate of peripartum homicide — people who were killed while pregnant or in their first year after giving birth — than states without restrictions.

IIRC, Apple got called out like eight or ten years ago because people using Siri to find abortion providers kept getting results for those awful “pregnancy crisis centers” in which non-medical personnel would try to convince women to keep their pregnancies.

At the time, I was working at a women’s college, and some coworkers in my department had ordered hundreds of copies of a handout full of “resources “ for our students. I immediately noticed that the local Planned Parenthood’s information was not on it, but a half dozen “pregnancy crisis centers” was. I got pissed and went straight to the coworkers who had created it and they admitted they’d just lifted the info off of somewhere else without vetting it. But also they had just gotten a thousand copies printed, so…*shrug.*

Every time I saw any in a “resources for students” place, I grabbed them all and threw them in the trash.

Just another reason I quit that place (and academia pretty much entirely).

conservative "news" sites losing eyeballs

Some of the bigger names in the field have been pummeled the hardest: The Daily Caller lost 57 percent of its audience; Drudge Report, the granddaddy of conservative aggregation, was down 81 percent; and The Federalist, founded just over a decade ago, lost a staggering 91 percent.
