To the left anyone left of Mittens Romney is a White Supremacist.

Is this merely a cover for further purges of conservatives from Twitter?

Report: Twitter Employee Claims Company's 'White Supremacy Algorithm' Could Target Republican Politicians | Breitbart



The employee argued that, on a technical level, content from Republican politicians could get swept up by algorithms aggressively removing white supremacist material. Banning politicians wouldn’t be accepted by society as a trade-off for flagging all of the white supremacist propaganda, he argued.

There is no indication that this position is an official policy of Twitter, and the company told Motherboard that this ā€œis not [an] accurate characterization of our policies or enforcement—on any level.ā€ But the Twitter employee’s comments highlight the sometimes overlooked debate within the moderation of tech platforms: are moderation issues purely technical and algorithmic, or do societal norms play a greater role than some may acknowledge?
Amarnath Amarasingam, an extremism researcher at the Institute for Strategic Dialogue, discussed why there may be issues with algorithmically removing white supremacist content on Twitter telling Motherboard:

ā€œMost people can agree a beheading video or some kind of ISIS content should be proactively removed, but when we try to talk about the alt-right or white nationalism, we get into dangerous territory, where we’re talking about [Iowa Rep.] Steve King or maybe even some of Trump’s tweets, so it becomes hard for social media companies to say all of this ā€˜this content should be removed,ā€™ā€ Amarasingam said.

ā€œThere’s going to be controversy here that we didn’t see with ISIS, because there are more white nationalists than there are ISIS supporters, and white nationalists are closer to the levers of political power in the US and Europe than ISIS ever was.ā€​
 
Move to Gab. I am on twitter and Gab but don't use either much. Mostly just to verify if someone said something etc...
 
More people are shot and killed due to the influence of rap music than muh white supreeemacy so why not delete rap music from the internet too?

Because White Supremacy is bullshit?

Because it has led to a world war?

Because it was the justification for the government inflicted murders of tens of millions of people?

Because it is anti-Christian, anti-human, and anti-rational?

If you are fine with left wingers dictating what you can and cannot say then theres something wrong with you...

Did you realize a person can reject BOTH White Supremacy and Marxism at the same time?
 
Why don't we ever see articles about islamic terrorist algorithms?

Did you know you don't have to buy into the Marxist multiculturalist anti-white propaganda?
Um that is part of what I said, bubba.

Sorry but it seems to me that you bought into the Marxist/globalist "diversity is our strength" "one race, the human race" BS propaganda.

Here is your modern day CUCKservative.
 
Why would you object to white supremacists losing their platform?

Oh, I forgot, your messiah is Trump.

That explains it.

Why don't we deplatform the neo-marxists while we're at it?

Oh, I forgot, that would decimate the mainstream media.

Most white supremacists despise Trump, an opinion you have in common with them.

I don't share the view that everyone who expresses an unpopular idea should be banned from expressing them. Obviously, many on the left don't share that concept.

Everything that exists in this civilization has been created by Americans and Europeans. Accept reality.
