Oh, I think they're very happy with the work of the bots. People who have one philosophy can pretty much say whatever they like. People who have the other can't say much past, "Good morning".
MSN, Community guidelines and standards being inappropriately applied.
I have been experiencing issues with posting comments on MSN for the past few months. My comments are often flagged as not complying with the community guidelines, despite my efforts to carefully craft them to avoid offending or accusing anyone. My intention is to provide supplemental information and alternative perspectives on topics and reports. I have also noticed that many news stories on MSN contain inaccurate and false information, and comments are often disabled for these stories. This creates a biased environment on the MSN website, as it does not allow for alternative information to be presented. I believe my comments do not violate the community standards and I would like to be able to resume posting comments like the one below, as sometimes presenting facts and refuting poor ideas is necessary.
“To explore the topic, I recommend looking into the double slit experiment and Schrodinger’s cat. Rather than simply providing answers, it is important to seek understanding by researching and contemplating the materials. Asking for answers is not affective, especially with complex topics like this, as human beings tend to have biases that hinder their ability to seek the reality of the situation due to cognitive dissidence. All I've given you some clues on what to research and I wish you the best of luck in your pursuit of understanding.”

2023-05-24T03:22:51+00:00 Sorry, liberal here. And I get dinged all the time. The problem is word choice, not content, and why the bot thinks some words are "profane" or "hate speech" completely puzzles me, particularly since others in the thread, both conservative and liberal, are using the exact same words and getting posted.
Try fiddling around with the wording of what you think is "censored" conservative speech. It will probably post eventually, though it is a whack a mole process.

2023-05-24T03:11:24+00:00 my problem isn't having the opinion rejected. It is the WORDING that is rejected. I've been playing catch a mole trying to reword until I hit the magic combo. By "reword" I mean simply trying synonyms for the words I used--none of them profane or hate filled.

I'm sure there are many places where like minded people would be happy to have you participate in their community.
