I'm clearly not doing a good job at explaining this. Twitter have certain rules that they expect users to follow. Lot of the labelling has been based on people posting disinformation/misinformation or conspiracies about the US elections or Covid. For whatever reason people on the right have been more prominent in breaking those rules. Labelling news from CNN/NPR as "fake news" is not balance, it is false balance. Labelling posts about how eating carrots cures Covid as misleading/disputed regardless of that persons political views is balance. I can't imagine that Twitter would in such cases bother to check the persons political background before labelling the content.
My issue is not so much whether or not the Democrats supported the riots, but rather the fact that they were so dismissive and quiet on the matter even months in. The level of concern they showed was little to none compared to Wednesday's attack. A few words here and there or the odd tweet against violence means nothing. There should have been clear bipartisan efforts to condemn this and to solve the problem.
The Media on the other hand are far worse, where you actually have 'highly respected' journalists like Chris Cuomo wrongly interpreting the constitution to thousands of viewers on live air, as to excuse the violence. That's worrying, especially when you have these same journalists/media companies suddenly turn 180 on their heal when the opposition does the same thing. Only a fool would refuse to admit that there is a clear and blatant agenda being pushed.

That I can get behind. Having said that, it's an impossible task to find and label all misinformation on their platform. I'd imagine that they rely heavily on people reporting posts that contain clear misinformation. For that reason I'd also think that they are more likely to label a post from someone with a decent amount of followers. We've already seen that some right wing influencers don't want to be on Twitter if their posts get flagged for containing misinformation. They'd rather be on Parler posting that misinformation freely.
I'll agree with that.
The College Bowl Playoff Series is fixed. What's new with you?
I'm in favor of limiting some speech. Without limits you end up with most social media sites today, which are dumpster fires of conspiracies and hate groups. I don't think the benefit of letting these nut jobs have a voice is worth the collective social costs.
True. Lefties need to raise their game, yo.
That's like asking what feminism was doing a few months ago.
Antifa = anti-facist. Which kind of says if you're diametrically opposed them, you might be a facist.
Either that or, more often the case, you don't understand what antifa actually is but do like the boogieman theory. Fox News hasn't been the same since we lost the knockout game.
It's cute how America thinks it invented everything.
I just lost my appetite for dinner.

Lol. Far right groups just tried to violently overthrow the federal government. Nice try
They also stormed the Michigan legislature this summer heavily armed. And planned to kidnap and execute the Michigan governor. Add to that, the vast majority of mass shootings in the US are done by right wing loonies.
Trump brought the biased media upon himself, by spending 4 years calling them “the true enemy of the people.” What the fuck did he expect them to say? We love Trump?
