Study of TikTok, X 'For You' feeds in Germany finds far-right political bias ahead of federal elections | TechCrunch
-
You forgot bots. Good % of every comments are bots on LLM algos.
-
Yes? Should I go into detail on why it works the way it does for more whine? No. I tried to educate and you refused it just like a child.
-
Not sure your education is worth much tbh. Happy for you to keep it
-
You don't know that, like at all. They say that it is, but there is absolutely no reason to belive them, musks and zukerbergs are lying pieces of shit.

His reply was perfectly civil and mature. Youâre the one whoâs acting childish.
-
Simple sorts are fundamentally different than the algorithms people are talking about.
-
It's not particularly surprising when left wingers are first movers to other platforms. The remaining people are a demographic where the left has filtered out, and with content being a product of the user base it gets a similar bias.
-
Add YouTube to that. You go there without cookies and login, and after you watched some random (not even German) vids to get a home feed, you can be sure to find the AfD in there, just because your language is set to German.
-
No, I refuse to educate someone that doesn't want to learn and it's childish to think you deserve it using anger. When you grow up I can tell you
-
Let's pretend that if you want. I know they are lying. But in perfectly "legal" ways
-
No you are crying about it actually but fair enough
-
Good point, I do forget about the bots. Sometimes I hope it's mostly all bots, but not so sure.
-
seems like a modest purchase after the US
-
At a guess it's a Musk fan looking to troll. Sad times that people spend their time like this when having a civil discussion is just as easy and you might actually get a bit more out of it

Pepperidge Farms remembers when Conservatives complained about tech have a left leaning bias.
Was that a confession like all accusations?
-
No dude, youâre being a prick.

Coincidentally, I just read a mastodon post where someone did a basic experiment to see what kind of content TikTok is pushing.
I was curious what a TikTok user might see if they made a fresh account. I provided no preferred content categories, and did not interact with any video in any way except the skip them.
In my first fifteen minutes, I received:
9 manosphere âinspirationâ videos
The official accounts of Tucker Carlson and Vivek
2 clips from each Fox News, and tabloids New York Post and Metro
1 âAmerica firstâ rando
1 Copaganda vid of âcoolâ new police robots
Elonâs nazi salute without context or commentary(they go on to list other things they saw after this.)

What do they need bots for? Just cut out the middleman and buy and sell upvotes/ recommendations/ rankings on the frontpage. Who would notice?
Lemmings and even more so Redditors are still clinging to the sham of "objective" platforms playing by some sort of physical rules and clean, unbiased algorithms in the face of multiple daily threads on social media that are very obviously being brigaded and capsized, for much more than 10 years at this point. -
Fascinating game. You get to learn what amazing liars people can be. The devil really is a squirrel.

"Turmoil" is an interesting choice of words.
