That's because rationalists tend to have higher IQ than your average dumb-as-dog-shit Trumpist.
Rationalism fails to empiricism. Should the empiricists divide you off, and treat you rationalists as 'dumb-as-dog-shit'?
Do you limit your circle to a high IQ elite in your family/community/city? Or do you try to get along with everyone?

I don't know why you keep not understanding it, despite my laying it out. It almost looks like deliberate lying.
That can't be right though. You wouldn't lie about the guy you hate irrationally...
Must be a cognitive failure. That's ok, I'm sure you are doing the best you can to understand. If you want to understand more, take up reading my words, instead of fantasizing.

And even if twitter was left-biased... so what? What's the point you are trying to make? That a private company (in the sense that it's not a public government service) can't moderate their forum to their liking?
They could, until they started making agreements with users about how those rules would be applied. Making agreements with those purchasing ads. Making statements to governments about things like shadow-banning or such.
Thanks for acknowledging it. It seems like pulling teeth sometimes just to get that across.
Acknowledging what? Twitter is left to me, but that's probably due to the algorithm feeding me what i associate most with. It might be entirely different for people of other political persuasions.
Acknowledging that you can see a bias.
I think the place where the bias is most disliked, is in uneven application of rules. If you were to follow lefty, and righty comics, would one receive more 'moderation'? It looks that way from here. Tatania McGrath did the podcast circuit, talking about some of it. You might find him (Dylan?) interesting.
Would comedy fans approve of such nannying?
The algorithm is another place it likely is. Like suppressing the sharing of the Hunter Laptop story leading up to the election. We all know (or can know) now that it was an important, real story. So how do you like them (along with many corporate media companies) manipulating elections in that way? Or is it ok because they aren't Russians?

No matter how many times I explain that twitter has obligations attached to the public promises it makes, you insist on claiming I must believe something outrageous.
You don't have to even pretend to understand, just lie lie lie. It makes you sound like a rationalizationist.
You should be proud. You're doing GREAT!
Spearthrower wrote: your irrationality.
It's your central lie, and I've deconstructed it here publicly.
Which irrationality? That twitter makes public promises related to their business operation, and can be held to them?
If you invent and lie about what I believe, you can twist any result you want out of this.
It must rankle to be so manipulated by media, that you can't possibly allow for evidence contrary to your treasured canon.
Spearthrower wrote:Pudendum wrote:The 'lie' you talk about is one perspective, but not his.
What is his perspective on it? Or have your media sources been purged of his statements, unless filtered and edited by his detractors?
The troll wants other people to go looking for evidence to corroborate his feelies
So you don't know his perspective. I knew that. How is it that I find it so easy to predict that you wouldn't listen to him?
Oh, right, because of your own words lol
If you just listen carefully to his detractors, and ignore anything he says, you'll get The Truth
TM and can call anyone who disagrees a troll. Then you'll be a rationalizationist!
Great job, Spearthrower. So canny. Such informative.

Why do you think Trump's response to this isn't worth hearing?
TL:DR I'll wait to hear what their detractors say about it. That'll inform me best. Spearthrower taught me that technique.
It's how you 'bash the fash'. Just do whatever the party says.

“The election was not stolen by fraud, and I haven't seen anything since the election that changes my mind on that, including the '2000 Mules' movie," Barr said in his deposition, laughing.
Time for you to shut the fuck up isn’t it, Pudendum?
Laughing. He was laughing at it. But, what the fuck would he know, eh?
Are you trying to push the idea that I believe everything in the movie?
How classy of you.
Next, why not insist that democracy is under threat, in a country where democracy is explicitly NOT the system.
It'll make you sound like a rationalismist. You'd like that.
Maybe I'll stop back in when there is more than one political opinion represented respectfully here.
