Cannot confirm. I get a lot of stuff about black hole cosmology.
I do, too, and alongside that are articles about how new discoveries in cosmology are upending all of science, and alongside those, thinly veiled creationist articles about how that means science has been totally wrong all along, therefore god. The Hubble tension has spawned a lot of these, with at least one article in my feed per day from the Discovery Institute and the like.
e: articles like these:
Were We Made to Make Black Holes? Evolution News is part of the Discovery Institute
The “Hubble Tension” and the Big Bang Evolution News
James Webb Space Telescope Reveals Fast-Growing Galaxies Answers In Genesis, speaks for itself
Weird, I don't get any of those. I get a lot of "quantum soul" nonsense instead.
But, I think thats because I decided that if black holes make universes, then this must not be my only life experience. And if that's true, then there is no god and life has no meaning.
I bet the algorithm picked up on that and is trying to feed me this other junk instead.
I’m pretty vocally atheist, but I watch debunking content, and part of that is anti-Flerf and anti-fascist stuff, so maybe the algorithm picked up on that.
Who knows! The algorithm works in mysterious ways 😂
