"For you" is Twitter's algorithm pushing things that it thinks will engage you. Often as not, it's ragebait. When you go to the site it's now defaulting to go there instead of "Following". A Chrome extension, Control Panel for Twitter, will default it back

Right now all high prices and economic problems are Biden's fault. But it's a great fantasy I'm sure Miller and Fox will love to promote.
