I wonder what the numbers would look like after filtering out bots?

Right bars are on the left and Left bars are on the right lol
Probably because left leaning people are capable of independent thought.
So platforms with more bot driven content engagement lean right. It’s almost like bots astroturf right wing content to drive clicks; if advertisers get wind of this, they’ll start paying more for ads to left wing users or probably just stop paying for ads to right wing users, since your sell through rate has to be near 0 with the amount of non human content interaction there.
