Most people don’t give a shit about politics and would rather not hear about them. So they don’t.
Twitter, for them, is about connecting to friends. Connecting to hobby groups. That sort of thing. And Twitter is mostly still useful for them. So they don’t even notice the tire fire building up around them.
I heard the recent changes make it so that all the political bullshit got shoveled into your face constantly. Idk, I’m not on there, but I could swear a lot of folks complained that it was unbearable, so they must be putting in some effort to ignore all of that if true.
The kinds of people complaining are likely being fed contentious politics because that’s what’s in their feed and thus what Teh Alegortyhm is feeding them. If all that’s in your feed is pictures of daisies and the occasional rose, the same system will likely feed you flowers.
