The X algorithm runs on addiction and agitation, pitting people against each other. On top of that, it is ground zero for astroturfing as well as an infinite variety of ops by intelligence services and governments.
More and more I think the poisonous impact of this thing on the world’s psyche is not well understood at all.
The globohomo elite probably gets it to an extent, but more in the sense of how it’s a threat to them that the propaganda war is now waged on a public battlefield where they don’t have an advantage, or worse, may have a disadvantage. That enrages them.
But the right wingers, conservative types, libertarians etc who are often cheering it on, are also useful idiots to an extent. Tools for the propaganda czars trying to have their impact on the battlefield.
Why any normal person would spend even a minute of their time there, is truly beyond me. Literal mind poison. Decentralised algorithm free social media FTW.
