Intentional suppression or just a glitch in the matrix? I have no idea if this is intentional, a backend "feature," or just a glitch in how X works. But if you follow me, like one of my posts, or make a reply there's a decent chance I never actually see it in my normal view or notifications. Think I ignored your comment? Maybe not. What shows on my profile vs. what my Premium dashboard reports (likes, replies, bookmarks) never adds up. The dashboard consistently shows higher numbers, more replies, more likes than I will ever see. Joking banter from my regular crowd comes through loud and clear, but a lot of other engagement (anything more serious) seems invisible to me. 685 likes, 110 replies in two weeks? I sure don’t see them. And 9.2% engagement? I hardly think so, not from what I’ve seen. Anyone else dealing with this mismatch between visible activity and analytics? Curious if it's widespread.

@LibTearCreator1 @BrightEyesAZ I voted for this.

Do you still support ICE 🧊

@BamaSaltyMarine @BrightEyesAZ Perfect way of putting it!… well, if the psychiatrist isn’t encouraging it 🙄

Dont argue with me! There are only 2 Genders, one goes to a Gynecologist, the other goes to a Urologist! The rest need to go to a psychiatrist!

@AuntieBarnes @NCSecession For real!

@CriticalPlinker @NCSecession This version of the algorithm is psychotic.

This is it. Fuck X! Everything I type goes directly to drafts, and can only be removed by deleting. Elon has ignored X, never replaced a top executive, removed the HELP department, and uses algorithms enathematic to all but very large accounts. It once was fun, it is no longer. Notification no longer works, and it becomes more evident daily that NOONE at X gives a rats ass. I'll miss many of you, maybe you'll see this. Adios, may God be kind to you.

@miles_commodore Movies suck now days…gotta watch the old ones.

I used to love movies, I’ll watch my favorites over and over again. I can’t believe how bad the movies today are. It really is amazing to me.

@ISniffElonsMusk @imPenny2x Wow! Take a look around… our society is more than just the stuff we have.

@imPenny2x No. And I mean no disrespect, although I was being flippant. I’m just saying that we seem to be doing fine.

Think what you want about religion. But moving away from God has been nothing but destructive for the west. Across the board almost every other framework that replaced God has been pretty poison.

@TRobinsonNewEra Next time you go to a burger joint, get the burger 😝

America your McDonald’s chicken nuggets are SHIT

@wintonARK It’s obvious scanning most large accounts on X. Word walls anyone?

We have been surpassed: AI written output exceeded human written output in 2025

@miles_commodore That brings back memories. If I remember right, they didn’t just ban him… they all but crucified him.

I’m a simple guy with no more than a public high school diploma so maybe I’m missing something. if Pete Rose was banned for betting on baseball because he has influence on the outcome, then how come it’s ok for Congress to invest in companies they are supposed to be regulating?🤔

@CountryGoy @rabbitholebot Well, if someday you need to…

@CriticalPlinker @rabbitholebot Or just not buy one

Guess why they want to have centralized killswitches in all vehicles...

@CountryGoy @rabbitholebot Disconnect the cell antenna 🙄

@rabbitholebot Guess why I don't have a new vehicle

@rabbitholebot They won’t need it anymore, not after everyone gets rid of their car and takes a robo taxi 🙄😳

@kay226155 @FarmGirlCarrie That’s not been my experience… More like they fail to recognize their own arrogance. They tend to believe they’ve paid their dues and are now superior. Education maps more closely to discipline than intellect, imo.

@FarmGirlCarrie So true, but someone with a Master's Degree is liable to realize their limitations and ignorance, even try to educate themselves, the others, maybe not so much.

True?

@wokenessucks @ScottPresler Getting better election integrity is definitely a step in the right direction 🫡. IMO, it’s not a one or the other. We need both. Getting this part done should get a few more good people elected, even if it’s not the full solution.

I agree with everything you said. I think I'm a little more hopeful than you are that the elections getting fixed will have more long-term positive impacts on the points that you're making, which are also very true. It feels like the majority of people are fed up with the two-party system that forces people into a position of blind loyalty to a political party over what they actually believe to be right or wrong. I believe when the elections are fixed, you'll start seeing candidates who typically wouldn't stand a chance doing very well. Instead of 98% of all votes going towards either the Democrat or the Republican, I think we'll start to see independent candidates or small candidate parties performing better. This will naturally force all political parties to pivot towards the will of the people and not the elites who are funding the two main parties we are forced into choosing today.

Just was contacted by a big GOP donor wondering why the Senate would go on recess when the DHS isn’t funded & there’s no clear plan to pass the SAVE America Act. I hope our Republican Senate realizes: if you don’t pass the SAVE America Act, you will lose the majority.

@kpguitarz211 @rabbitholebot Paint with the large brush. It's the ones lost in the minutiae who miss the bigger picture🫡

@rabbitholebot reason you dont see me painting with a large brush Its the jews Its the muslims Its the christians Its the democrats Its the republicans Its the white people Its the black people Its the brown people Its the gay people

@rabbitholebot Sounds like a good way for our enemies to win a war without firing a shot…. The easiest war to win is the one your enemy doesn’t even realize it’s in.

@DrunkRepub 💯! It’s so ridiculous I gotta think a good part of it is from people planted just to sow the division.

I hear this a lot: “I voted for lower energy prices.” Okay, me too. But every time Trump tries to drill some activist group and their Dem judge buddy block him. Almost certainly one reason we went to Venezuela. So you’re going to reward the guy blocking the drilling by not voting for Repubs in the midterms? Congrats, that’s what he wanted. Also you think if Tucker or whoever is President a bunch of Gen Z dorks are gonna rise up and depose the judges and dismantle the Deep State? They can’t even be bothered to go get food. They have that shit delivered! The lack of critical thinking by some on the right is hitting stratospheric levels. The people telling you to burn it all down are just vying for power once Trump is gone. Things are happening, but Rome wasn’t built in a day. They are using you. And you’re letting them. Trust the plan.

@PiperK @GOP Yes, I expect exactly that… and it’s not just money well spent today. It’s a worthy investment of our future. Btw, most of the country had very little to do with mail-ins pre-2020 and it was SUPPOSED to be temporary.

It's not clear how people in Washington state would even vote under the Save America Act. Everyone votes by mail here. Does the @GOP expect us to spend tens of millions to revamp the whole system before November?

You have a good point. The media, the entire pipeline of social media, news outlets, TV, movies, and entertainment, is controlled by a precious few. They have enormous influence over what we see, decide, and believe. The division is real, but it's largely because they made it real. The real "us vs them"? For me, it's the elites who control the narrative, the funding, and who gets promoted into power versus the rest of us. Sowing division is their tactic... and it works. Amplify race, religion, LGBTQ issues, and other hot buttons, and suddenly we're at each other's throats instead of holding the system accountable. That said: Absolutely, we NEED integrity in our elections. This needs to be done. Just realize it probably will get done because it shifts the spotlight. Sure, it's a win, but maybe not quite the win we're expecting if the deeper issues like primaries and candidate pipelines stay untouched.

True, but that has to start with knowing that the things we vote for are accurately reflected in the results of the elections. Right now, they aren't. And the majority of the country sees it, but there's nothing we can do about it because the only thing we can do—which is to vote—doesn't mean anything when the elections are rigged. Also, "we" aren't as divided as they want us to think we are. It only seems that way because of what people see on the various screens we stare at 24/7. If people stopped taking any information off a TV or a phone screen and only got it from people walking around in the real world, they'd see we aren't that divided. The media tells us 85% support the SAVE Act. If they're saying 85%, it's probably well over 90% in reality.
