This shows you how bad the propaganda attempt went. They should have left it gone long enough to hurt, so people would really be mad. Now it just looks weird and a clear attempt to make Trump look good for Monday.

On Twitter though there's already people praising Trump for saving TikTok

The remaining userbase of Twitter was praising Trump long before TikTok credited him with "saving" it.

People who still actively post on Twitter like it isn't a bought and paid for alt-right propaganda machine represent a clear bias.

Twitter is a propaganda machine too? It's going to sort and surface that kind of thing.

A huge, common fallacy is that there's any kind of fairness in what rec algorithms prioritize to serve.
