I've been using X for news lately. Every time a large mass of people are outraged over the latest left wing embarrassment, there's one or two suspicious left wing counter-posts that get suspiciously large engagement.
Example 1: archive Guy with 3200 followers gets 17k likes for countersignaling the Yasuke controversy. He normally gets in the low hundreds for likes and the comments are split for and against.
Example 2: archive Tranny wannabe twitch thot with 1600 followers gets 60k likes for banal meme. He normally gets UNDER TEN likes per post. Not 10k, ten.
This isn't hard to find. Pick an anti-RW post at random and chances are the numbers won't make sense.
Right wing comparison for reference. 23k likes from a guy that normally gets 50-200 likes. However, he has several posts around the 1k threshold, 20k followers, and he has multiple 10k+ posts on the topic.
The entire social media game has been rigged from the start.
Its initial stage was to see who is associated with who, what they buy with how much money they have and then it led to all this categorisation and control silliness which has been around since 2010.
It's been used as a staged means of pitting groups against each other since then but that was always its purpose.
The sooner people use it differently and not for their own political leanings, purchases or plans the better it will be for everyone. But that's not happening any time soon as the claws in censorship don't want to let go and once they finally do it will all be looked back upon as some 'daft mistake' made by the masses.
