Totally agree. Especially when combined with an algorithm that deliberately promotes far-right posts and deboosts opposing viewpoints.

"You are just being you, and any proselytizing you do is just exposing the kid to different viewpoints!" I wonder if that idea will be accepted if/when there is more kids on the other sides of the family and DIL shares her viewpoint to them...

No. The Fairness Doctrine was narrowly constitutional for application to holders of broadcast licenses and merely required some airtime for diverse viewpoints. They did not have to be shown during the same program or even on the same day.

And it could not apply to cable, internet, or print.

“The president’s response fits within a pattern of behavior documented over several years in which he has declined to express sympathy for victims of violence or tragedy when those individuals represented opposing political viewpoints.”

Trump’s empathy gap: A defining feature of his leadership
The president’s response to the Reiner killings crystallizes a pattern: Trump withholds empathy from Americans he views as adversaries, abandoning a traditional duty of the office.

We also outline a practical pathway involving embedding critical thinking in age-appropriate storytelling and discussion, using relatable scenarios to help children practise skills like evidence-checking, considering other viewpoints, spotting bottlenecks, and asking “who benefits?”

The sexist, condescending men mansplaining our experiences as women in a sexist world is typical.

Screw them. Their tiny brains can't handle your thread. We got you and recognize our shared viewpoints and experiences as women who deal with condescending misogyny every day.

Now if you truely want good and vastly different ideas you need to make sure that people are looked after to get as many different viewpoints as possible.
And that's not happening in the current economic climate.

We've already seen how Musk will manipulate Grok to push his own viewpoints

I'm sure this is in the works already, but allowing advertisers to buy 'space' in these models so they get pushed to users asking about a specific topic seems like the next step

These things are not neutral

I don't see myself writing more than a short story from a single POV; I just adore the breadth of potential multiple viewpoints adds, especially for an erotically focused work. The same act becomes an entirely different experience through fresh eyes. Also, for me it's a tool I use to make sure (5/7)

Look man we can't expect journalists to "know things about stuff," or "engage in critical thinking."

The world very obviously needs more half-considered and blindingly ignorant viewpoints written by people with a financial incentive to sell you on snake oil.

is this war even real? i thought zelensky would have grey hair and a skinny physique from starving to death from the lack of fertile soil for crops by now

maybe this war just doesn't fucking exist. maybe it's just west-funded banderite propaganda to spread russophobic viewpoints

I only posted what you asked for. Since you included a YouTuber known only as Pat - who regularly posts strongly MAGA & conservative Christian viewpoints - in your original post, I assumed it would be acceptable to share a few YouTubers as well, along w/ local & national media outlets.

The best way you can influence using social media is through local networking and organizing. Sharing info and details is very helpful. It's enjoyable to have conversations and sometimes you might affect one or two people's viewpoints, but that's just gravy.
i think there are few good reasons to spend any significant amount of time on social media. i think "if i post enough, then i can #influence elon musk and jack posobiec" is one of the worst

People with his viewpoints don't think Muslims are human.

Convincing those people that their views are wrong is simply not possible because people like that only solidify their wrong viewpoints and double down on them. Once you understand cult-like behavior it all makes sense.

No, those people need to feel the pain of their own decisions.

Possibly a fool's errand on my part but I fear not. I believe this is indeed actual white nationalist and great replacement conspiracy viewpoints:

bsky.app/profile/dark...
Researching a bit, he's endorsing white nationalist views about restricting women's autonomy on interracial marriage and reproduction to preserve white racial demographics

This is great replacement conspiracy: diversity framed as white extinction requiring action to preserve white demographics

Today I am thankful that I can't for the life of me figure out why anyone tolerates the bullshit coming from DC. Normally I try to understand different viewpoints, but there's really nothing there to be understood. It's all just chaos and hatefulness.

So, what that turns into is someone you believe to be a trusted source occasionally spouting fascist viewpoints. Instead of it being overt, it’s more covert and becomes more difficult for you to differentiate.

(Multiply that several times over if you follow a bunch of similar accounts.)

Do not participate on the app that
1. Makes nazis money
And
2. Allows their viewpoints to be pushed above everyone else's.

Let's not overcomplicate this.

"I think your friends should kill themselves"

a bunch of people on this site have moral viewpoints that absolutely should never have been allowed out of the sewers that birthed them. "it's okay to kill yourself" is an *evil* belief
