Over on The Bird site, I started getting a bunch of right wing tweets in my feed because I happen to follow journalists who monitor that site. It was like turning on your faucet at watching dirty gray water come out. Blech!

I see the same increase in right wing leaning posts over there. I think it's a result of the increase in percentage of right wingers as the number of reasonable people quit or stop posting.

When most of what Twitter is made of is sewage, you're going to see more sewage.

@SeanPLynch @georgetakei I also think (in my case anyway) that the more I was responding to the idiocy, lies and stupidity of a category of poster, the more of their ilk the algorithm pulled into my feed. It was like the echo chamber became the inverse. Mastodon is better for my blood pressure lol.
