Are people in the US aware that they are now definitely a rogue state, or is this fact covered up by the usual patriotism somehow? (lemmy.world)

Are you suggesting that the algorithms for every website are pro-trump?

Algorithms mostly care about profit and user engagement.
Go check the front page of reddit and see how most political posts are about trump's/america's fuck ups.

Sorry, the site that is expressly pro-Trump and has been removing comments critical of the current administration?

Beyond that, I wouldn't even necessarily describe Reddit as a major player in the U.S. Most Americans are either part of META's ecosystem or X, and both of those are absolutely pro-Trump.
