        I think that might be someone else's followee list.

        Ohh you’re right. I misunderstood the “Who you might also follow” part as being a twitter recommendation haha

        So it’s more “guilt by the worst person any of your followers might also follow"

        I don't think the algorithm makes much distinction what side of a particular issue you're on. Discuss enough trans issues and you get TERFs *and* transactivists recommended. Mostly just bluecheck celebs though.

        😂That’s funny. The suggestions change but I think the algorithms are based on a combination of who I follow as well as who you follow (& interact with). So they aren’t just based on you but also whoever that person was. I get a bunch of humanists/skeptics for example✌🏼❤️pic.twitter.com/sTwoLCAXub

        I have a hunch that the person who wanted to guilt you is one of those far leftists who spends 90% of their time on alt-right profiles yelling at them. So they get suggestions based on their interactions...😐

        Twitter has designed it algorithms to do this.

        Replying to @HPluckrose

        It's breathtakingly anti-intellectual to say "you have sought to hear this person's words, therefore you must agree with them." No one actually believes that, it's just a lazy ideological weapon used to defame people in the minds of others.

        I seem to be blocked, despite apparently having never interacted with them. I guess they chainblocked all your followers
