My understanding from recent reporting is that Gmail’s spam filters routinely block
messages from reaching consumers when those messages come from Republican senders but fail
to block similar messages sent by Democrats. Indeed, according to recent reporting, Alphabet
has “been caught this summer flagging Republican fundraising emails as ‘dangerous’ spam—
keeping them from hitting Gmail users’ inboxes—while leaving similar solicitations from
Democrats untouched….” Likewise, commenters on the FTC’s request for information
regarding Technology Platform Censorship have complained that Google is using a partisan approach in administering its spam filters. And finally, as you know, similar concerns have
resulted in ongoing litigation against Google in other settings. -

We explain how Gmail spam filters work to help protect user inboxes and the steps senders can take to maximize delivery of their email messages.
Google Workspace Blog (workspace.google.com)
User feedback, such as when a user marks a certain email as spam or signals they want a sender’s emails in their inbox, is key to this filtering process, and our filters learn from user actions.
Maybe a lot of people just mark it as spam for some reason, wonder why that could be? Could it be because they simply don't like your emails and think they feel spammy? No, that couldn't be it, it has to be that the same company that kissed up to Trump also just hates republicans now for some reason! /s

"I got mine so screw everyone else" is a common Republican refrain.

and those spam filters get trained by people marking emails as spam. Its funny that they publicly just admitted that they are less popular than democrats from a source that cannot possibly have been biased.
