It’s the algorithms.

They push up people who once upon a time would have been institutionalised for their rambling nutjobbery and instead are given a platform with a spotlight to drive engagement for big tech social media.

No wonder everything feels so broken and society seems so sick. The lunatics were put in control of the asylum to sell garbage to people who don’t need it.

Or… hear me out… times are tough and getting tougher. Algorithm or not.

Yeah the algorithmic training is a symptom of our disconnection from source. Trying to fill an empty void with something substantial. Social media in its current form just takes us further from source. It deepens the void.

We have a deep desire for connection.
