Some theories are clearly idiotic.

Some theories are clearly idiotic.

I think they mean something in the algorithms that automatically gives low weight value to anything related to the word 'Palestine', thus prevents it from trending.

It's not that far-fetched.

"Something" in the algorithms? Which algorithms would these be? And how can such a theory ben evaluated for its robustness?

facebook was once caught suppressing conservative views but of course denied it and at the same time changed for the better.

trending topics are selected through a combination of algorithms and staff. even when software deems a topic worthy, the human staff can put a kibosh on it

No, I mean PRIVATE COMPANIES operating social media platforms. I suppose comprehension is not your strong suit, considering that there is competition among private companies, each one trying to best everyone else, and their goal is to maximize value for their shareholders and/or owners.

assessment from USEPA. I think China should ban alfalfa hay imports from the US for 2-3 years as most are from Ohio.

Ohio is also a major source for corn, oats, fruits and veggies in the US.

Try not to drink tap water if you live around that region
