So negative posts on X will suffer from a drop in relevance in the algorithm...

I wonder how someone is going to report the reality without the Tweet being negative... It's like, "A plane crashed, everyone died, but they're fine."

Whether you like it or not, removing relevance is a form of censorship... Imagine if you're going on a trip and you rent a room in a hotel that only has positive reviews, but when you get there, it's a mess, you would be furious.

I know there's that story that if you focus on the negative, things will just keep getting worse, since hope is lost when the public sees so many misfortunes... But it's still funny that Elon Musk is doing this now that he's in the U.S. government and not before.

This just shows how social networks with algorithms can manipulate the public's emotions at will.
