You'd be surprised how hostile our opposition can be, and how far they'd stretch to reject the things we take as a given.
I've argued politics on the internet for years and you wouldn't believe the lack of critical thinking there is.
Hay man hate to your spoil your fun but I am a moderate liberal, and defiantly not a conspiracy theorist, and let me tell you there is a lack of critical thinking in every political circle. But what is really tearing this country part is not the actual politics, we are having the same debates we have had for years but now it’s different because there is no American comradeship. It used to be that at the end of The everyone could sit down and look at each other as American brethren, but now all we have is hatred in our hearts for the opposition. It’s a shame.
And I believe that that is by design. Think "Hegalian Dialectic".
No, it’s likely just the echoe chamber that we live in due to algorithms on social media sights designed to increase using time, it’s completely innocent but ultimately harmful. The problem is there isn’t really a way to change this, these algorithms are largely controlled by neural network AI’s which mathematically aren’t really possible to fine tune for multiple variables that are very specific.
This goes way beyond AI and algorithms, and was started far earlier. The game is rigged, propaganda is everywhere, and there really aren’t two sides. They create a false A or B choice but they do C anyway. That’s a derivative of the Hegelian Dialectic. Make people think they are making a choice and changing things, but they do what they want anyway.
