Good morning, Telluride! There's a lot of influence from bots, trolls, grifters, and so on. It's also the reason why I don't believe too much in online debates. If we can't have a beer face-to-face, it's pointless to have debates, because I have no guarantee that I won't argue with ChatGPT or with a troll farm. But this is me.
Here's a "fun" fact. During that 12-day war, or whatever it was, between Israel and Iran, when Iran cut the internet for its citizens, the X accounts that were asking for Scotland's independence disappeared. When they came back after those days without internet, they were suddenly pro-Iran and anti-Israel, with no more posts about Scottish separation.
Proof of beer, my friend! 🍻 And have a peaceful day!
