    Its not just fascists.

    It is everyone. The Algorithm means we live in content bubbles 24/7. Everything you watch either reinforces your world view or gradually shifts you toward your favorite influencer’s. That is why a disagreement isn’t “I think you are wrong”. It is always “you are being disingenuous” or “you are presenting your opinions as fact”. Because you aren’t just saying they are wrong. You are saying their very world is wrong.

      What algorithm? Not all of us use TikTok etc.

      My feeds are my subscriptions by activity.

        And how do you think you found those (simplifying) channels to subscribe to? How do you think your friends and other influencers you like found the channels they recommended to you? Hell, what do you think informs what is and isn’t said in those (again, simplifying) videos?

      Who else than? I am clearly referring to lies instead of truth.
