Be a grown up and use the block function. Everyone is perfectly capable of moderating their own content. If you feel you are incapable of doing that, then just don't use the platform.Keep this on topic for X
I never really use it, only if I have to use an external app of something requires a tweet to receive reward.
But man has this thing gone down the swanny. My timeline is littered with extremist and violent content of people I don't even follow. The people I do follow don't show up in my feed. I receive notifications promoting hate groups I have never head of. My algorithm seems to push out things I'm actually interested in.
The Mayor of Paris called it a sewer pushing hate and stressing social tensions. Normally I'd argue the content is relevant to your interests but this seems to be completely gone. It's littered with praise for dictatorships, and calls for genocide.
NM the ads intersecting every tweet ... or X or whatever they're called now.
that's funny because I actually blocked a bunch of people recently and those same accounts are being aggressively pushed on me now. In any case blocking does not provide sufficient moderation since I am still receiving retweets from other users on accounts I have blocked.Be a grown up and use the block function.

I am tired of people asking for other people to moderate their content for them. This is the type of crap that leads to mass censorship. The sad part is it's not even ideological... It's just extreme laziness.
Just block everyone who retweets ideas you are too sensitive to hear. Others shouldn't have to be shielded from ideas you personally find distasteful.that's funny because I actually blocked a bunch of people recently and those same accounts are being aggressively pushed on me now.

Also in general I tend to think blocking is a pussy move, unless I'm annoyed by something flooding my timeline
Has nothing to do with being sensitive. I made a twitter account to promote my own stuff/work not get bombarded with other peoples' political opinions. Also, bad info can also rot the mind and reading a lot of that stuff just isn't healthy. But yeah, if someone is manipulating my algorithm to force things on me that I don't want and blocking people is the only way to clear it up then that's probably what I have to do, but the fact stands that blocking doesn't even send the message through anyway and tends to lead to more aggressive targeted hate speech.Just block everyone who retweets ideas you are too sensitive to hear. Others shouldn't have to be shielded from ideas you personally find distasteful.
If you find that you can't get the experience you desire through your own blocking mechanisms, maybe just find a discussion forum where everyone has the same ideas as you. It's difficult to offend anyone in an echo chamber.

I was the same and I created an account because it was required for a college course. Then I found out Twitter has a good amount of good quality porn clips hahaha!i've never used twitter and i probably never will.
You must be so glad neo Nazis are now a protected class on Twitter.
you mean the disproportionate number of democrats, blacks, and young people who are holocaust deniers?
Running defense for the Nazis sounds like being a nazi. Who would deny the Holocaust?"If there’s a Nazi at the table and 10 other people sitting there talking to him, then you got a table with 11 Nazis."
That table is always going to be conservative. Always. If you were a leftist in Nazi Germany you kept it secret or you were shot.
Texas GOP executive committee rejects proposed ban on associating with Nazi sympathizers and Holocaust deniers
You know this, but are playing the same "I know you are but what am I" game you always play.

What does barring association with Holocaust deniers mean? like, you can’t do interviews with them? Can’t work with them? What does that mean? Sounds like a free speech issueConservatives.
You know, the guys that just rejected legislation barring association with holocaust deniers.
