I now make my living by releasing short videos on YouTube, Facebook, Twitter and Instagram.
I assumed you who subscribed to my feed or became Facebook “friends†would receive that video every Tuesday.
Wrong! Turns out social media companies send our posts to only some of our friends. (That’s why I ask for your email address. Then they can’t cut us off.)
Why might they cut us off?
One reason is that we’d drown in a fire hose of information if they showed us everything. The companies’ algorithms cleverly just send us what the computer determines we’ll like.
Another reason may be that the companies are biased against conservative ideas.
They deny that. But look at their actions. Social media companies say they forbid posts that “promote violence,†including ones that encourage violence offline.
But antifa groups that promote violence still have accounts. The Twitter account of the group in Portland, Oregon, that recently beat up journalist Andy Ngo. leaving him with brain damage, is still up.
