Quote:Congressman Brad Sherman (D-CA) had a bit of explaining to do after he was caught looking at lewd photos on a recent airline flight, and let's just say his explanation was less than sufficient.

Ironically, it was a left-wing account that brought this to light because Sherman is seen as not radical enough on Israel, despite having pushed pro-Palestinian policies. Punchbowl News reporter John Bresnahan then interviewed the Democrat about the incident.

Note: Despite the claim below, the following pictures are not what I'd describe as pornography. They are of scantily-clad women, though.

Hilariously, Sherman blamed Elon Musk for the incident, claiming the various pictures just randomly popped up in his "For You" tab on X.

Was this just a result of the "algorithms?" Sure, that's not only a possibility. That's a probable, but that doesn't really end this discussion because of how the algorithms work.

For example, when I go to my "For You" tab on X, I get a mix of right-wing and left-wing political posts. Why? Because those are the types of posts I interact with. I'm typically either reposting a conservative saying something I agree with, or I'm reposting a left-winger to express my disagreement with them, either through serious critique or snark. You know what I never see on my "For You" tab, though? Any accounts run by scantily-clad women trying to get me to go subscribe to their OnlyFans garbage. That's because I never seek out or interact with those types of posts.

So yeah, Sherman can blame the algorithm all he wants, but that algorithm is influenced by his browsing history and interaction history on X. If you spend your time bashing Democrat politicians in their replies, it will feed you more posts from Democrat politicians. If you spend your time interacting with "other" types of accounts, it's going to feed you more of that. Everything is about driving interaction and engagement.

By the end of the interview with Bresnahan had Sherman doing some heavy qualifying of his denials.

Is any of this surprising? Of course, not. Sherman fits the creepy old man mold to a tee, down to his gaping mouth in those pictures as he browsed. If Washington is one thing, it's a breeding ground for moral decay.

Could have just said “I like pretty women in lingerie” and called it a day.

So, somebody on the plane was spying on him, right?

That would make him a bad male feminist.

As soon as he used the term “pretty women” he would be cancelled by the Democrat Party. Pretty women isn’t something you associate with Leftists.

Is it just me, or do those look like PG images? Not a good look, but not a scandal. With all the smut floating around, it looks rather tame to me.

Looked like he was shopping for a date or something on some sleazy social app. .
