We know that Twitter and Facebook interfered in the election by suppressing documents and information that would have hurt Joe Biden — think Hunter Biden’s laptop, the lack of scientific basis for COVID-19 restrictions and everything in between. It isn’t really a stretch to think that Republican speech was being suppressed in other ways across social media platforms.
But there has been a profound change in social media since the last presidential election. Elon Musk, a strong proponent of free speech, took control of Twitter/X in 2022, and as for Facebook, the discovery of its cover-ups most certainly has put a much harsher spotlight on it this time around.
What the fuck is this drivel?
It’s an opinion piece they published so they can appear “unbiased”. But it’s a really fucking stupid opinion, to be perfectly blunt.
The Hill has been putting out some worse takes than usual.
They’ve clearly been chugging the Q-lade.
Honestly, I trust the betting markets more than the pollsters. Money on the line makes a difference.
You don’t necessarily get common sense with money, especially if you are very wealthy.
Betting markets can be swayed easily by wealth, sure. Another bias is that they’re overwhelmingly frequented by young men.
Also betting on who you think will win, doesn’t always match with who you’re voting for.
