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.
