Like how education and understanding requires energy and communication and hate speech just requires simplistic headlines like 3 word slogans to grab attention?
These platforms draw the exact crowd it’s intended for.
To add, they will literally show you everything and anything to just keep you hooked on the platform like on Heroin. Slowly but surely it will guide you into some sort of perverted radicalised worldview, No matter which end of the political spectrum. As long as you're spending preferably the entire day on there and stay highly emotionalised throughout all of it. I think Instagram, TikTok, Twitter, Facebook and all other types of antisocial media like that are a genuine evil and a detriment to humanity.
Communicating whole ideas is elitist and fundamentally doomed to failure.
Because most people, especially the poors, are too dumb to understand them.
Instead, we, the people who know better, should manipulate the cattle into thinking and doing what we want them to.
