Title: META concedes, X's "COMMUNITY NOTES" system, bettr
Post by Yadda on Jan 8th, 2025 at 2:09am

META concedes, X's "COMMUNITY NOTES" system,
is better, than applying potentially biased, silo-ed [insular], 'fact checker' 'factory' sources.


"COMMUNITY NOTES" is a system of community reviews [of information], coming from a "diverse range of perspectives".


The 'authority' attributed, to legacy MSM sources of information,
seem to be rapidly succumbing to the effect, of the hemlock,
of its own [often] gross dis-, and mis-information.

Yay !!!

LESS CENSORSHIP: Meta’s Chief Global Affairs Officer Joel Kaplan in an exclusive interview on 'Fox & Friends' discusses how the platform is ending the controversial fact-checking system,
admitting its content moderation went "too far."
He also outlines how President-elect Trump's incoming administration will foster an environment where free expression is embraced.

Community Notes.......is a feature on X

Operation

Algorithms used by Community Notes, November 17, 2023[28]

The Community Notes algorithm publishes notes based on agreement from contributors who have a history of disagreeing.[18] Rather than based on majority rule,[29] the program's algorithm prioritizes notes that receive ratings from a "diverse range of perspectives".

Journalism is printing what someone else does not want printed; everything else is public relations.

"If liberty means anything at all, it means the right to tell people what they do not want to hear."
- George Orwell


"The further a society drifts from truth the more it will hate those who speak it."

"In a time of universal deceit, telling the truth is a revolutionary act."
- George Orwell            [even if this quote is mis-attributed to Orwell, the pursuit of truth remains a great virtue]


"I consider that willingness to criticize Russia and Stalin is the test of intellectual honesty."

ideology vs. truth


"To admit that an opponent might be both honest and intelligent is felt to be intolerable.
It is more immediately satisfying to shout that he is a fool or a scoundrel, or both, than to find out what he is really like."

One does not establish a dictatorship in order to safeguard a revolution; one makes the revolution in order to establish the dictatorship.

"diversity", does NOT mean that only people you agree with can speak.

One way is to believe what is not true.
The other is to refuse to accept what is true."

Speaking to the blind and fundamental [extremist] error, of those who worship, within the temple of Political Correctness [who are against open enquiry or transparency]....

"If the opinion is right, they are deprived of the opportunity of exchanging error for truth: if wrong, they lose, what is almost as great a benefit, the clearer perception and livelier impression of truth, produced by its collision with error."
- J.S. Mill - English philosopher - on people who try to silence opinions with which they disagree

Wikipedia has a good system, but it would be too much effort for something like X.

Why is there suddenly an expectation that social media websites become arbiters of truth?

We're entering another post-truth and post-fact Presidential term.

Those who own the platforms are always going to bend the knee, it's not about what the best model is, it's an inevitable business choice.

freediver,

They are not, and they cannot be.

But that should not preclude different and diverse opinions being openly presented for critique and debate, upon those open public forums.




'Turn on a light in a dark, and dirty kitchen......and watch all of the cockroaches scurry away [into the dark corners]!'


It has often been said, that,    .....'LIGHT is a disinfectant.'

Let us have more light and more open scrutiny.......NOT less.

Your posts are basically unreadable and I skip right past them. Too much garbage in them, it's an assault on the eyes. Just keep it to the point like most of the rest of us do!

Armchair_Politician,

I know, i know.

I'm 'way out there',    .....i'm near the orbit of Pluto.

Peripheral.



And yet, i hold quite a conservative mindset.

conservative1 = = averse to change or innovation and holding traditional values.


"Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly,
nor standeth in the way of sinners,
nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful.
But his delight is in the law of the LORD;
and in his law doth he meditate day and night."

Psalms KJV


".....wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction,
and many there be which go in thereat....
.....and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life...."

Matthew KJV


Conservative.

Swimming, against the flow.

Contrarian.


.


One or two things i have learned in this life.

We are all individuals.

Each one of us, has the ability, every day, to make choices [anew].

And every day, we all are choosing, our path     [....to our destination].




"Praise ye the LORD.
O give thanks unto the LORD;
for he is good:
for his mercy endureth for ever."

Psalms KJV


Affirmations.
