Anyone feel as if social media is providing extremism a platform? (lemmy.world)

Liking posts that criticise Western human rights failures have led me towards algorithms of pages that worship dictatorships. Tankie Marxists seem to garner a lot of attention within this "left wing" binary. It seems like there's no such thing as social media politics that are nuanced anymore. I just want to protect myself from data collecting algorithms, stereotypes and assumptions.

I feel for you. When I was using Facebook there was a lot of right wing and left wing conflicts over the British flag. It just seems like everyone likes to fight over things that are so small.

Kudos, everyone deserves dignity and not having to experience constant conflict online.
