Currently I am on a half diet of social media as I am still locked out of X and by now I really don’t mind any more. Social media is dead and has been weaponised into a distraction, propaganda and rage discourse machine. I wished it weren’t that way, but we truly and thoroughly allowed the “social” web to become a dumpster fire that fuels hate, distrust and confusion. The goal is not shared experiences or creativity, the goal is to keep people glued to the screens and pissed off enough so they comment on other people being wrong on the internets using pre-made memes, AI slop and sound bites.
