      You don’t even need to click for them to recommend it. If you look at it longer than another thing, or take a screenshot when it’s on the screen, it’s a signal that you might spend more time on the app if they show those kind of things. And the chance of you spending more time on the app means more money for them through ads.

      I’ve never once had FB suggest things like this to me…

      Probably because I’ve never made an account!

      This is not true. Anyone that clicks anything remotely socialist immediately gets fed with the completely opposite, gommunism no food and 100gorillionbillion deaths propaganda. It immediately tries to lead people to the opposite.

        Happens on Youtube a lot, I watch leftist videos, and all of a sudden I’m recommended PragerU and it starts showing up on my fucking autoplay.
