Facebook admits it must do more to stop the spread of misinformation
Throwaway for obvious reasons. It&#x27;s dangerous to support reform against the reactionary left.<p>I&#x27;m a Trump voter. I consider myself pretty well educated (M.Sc. CS&#x2F;EE, honors), and I work in a research lab. I&#x27;m not your typical Trump voter. Full disclosure: I&#x27;m also an immigrant (legal one, nearly 20 years), naturalized US citizen, I make several hundred thousand dollars a year, and pay a ton in taxes. I&#x27;m liberal on social issues. I support LGBT and gay marriage. I&#x27;m an atheist. I have a wife and a kid. I&#x27;m also pro-gun, pro marijuana, and pro letting people do whatever they want with their lives. I&#x27;m also extremely fiscally conservative, and against illegal immigration.<p>My FB feed was so skewed against Trump I had to close my account. Bombshell stories on Clinton wouldn&#x27;t trend, while the most inane BS about Trump would immediately reach the top and stay there.<p>It is strange for me to hear FB being accused of being &quot;too conservative&quot;. I certainly saw nothing like that &quot;red&quot; feed on WSJ.<p>BTW, I could elaborate why I voted for Trump if anyone is interested. I don&#x27;t agree with him on everything, but on the balance he seemed like the lesser of two evils to me.
