    Its been happening increasingly though, and I truly fear because while you might sometimes be able to tell, on average, people arent, and the owners are therefore able to control a significant proportion of the population.

    I truly believe like 30% of the population focus on making life worse for others, 20 percent want things to generally be better, and 50 percent are just blowing in the breeze with a mildly positive on average take.

    If they can get that 50% to think that the common opinion is hateful and shitty, they’ll just adopt that thinking that its the path of least resistance.

    I don’t know how we combat that without bot armies of our own, while fighting on their home turfs as they own these platforms.
