>>>5222581 emergence of social media means we tend to seek our own truth
Hmm just saw this.. I think the premise in the tweet is flawed:
People on social media started seeking their own truth, not because of tribalism or 'following people we already agree with'.
Because that diminishes the idea of people thinking for themselves.
I think people turned away from FMSM because FMSM lied too hard, too often, and too transparently.
And you can only get away with that for so long until thinking people give you the finger.
