Okay so here's the thing — every time I turn on the news it feels like someone turned off my brain and installed a satellite feed straight from North Korea. And nobody's mad enough about it. Meanwhile actual problems? Oh, those are "complex issues" that need "nuanced discourse." Meanwhile politicians talk in soundbites and thinkers think they're being deep when they're just angry at the wrong things. And don't get me started on the media — they're not reporting, they're curating outrage for engagement. The algorithm doesn't care about truth, it cares about rage. And we're all feeding it by sharing every piece of garbage that makes us feel superior or validated in our biases.
