feels like turnabout fair play to me as i sit here eating my bowl of popcorn...

Twitter was biased against Conservatives and the Right screamed and cried foul.

X is biased against Liberals and the Left screams and cries foul.


It's less turnabout, and more just private property. Twitter isn't a public resource, there is no inherent expectation for it to protect against (or provide, for that matter) a default bias in any of it's services.

The real irony is that whenever the bias changed hands, both sides demanded that the law change instead of society. Bipartisan politics are a cancer on American society, most likely a brain tumor.
