The Social Dilema on Netflix should be mandatory viewing for everyone. Flawed in places, but just an eye opener into how harmful these platforms really are. Do watch it.

The sentence that stuck with me from The Social Dilema:
— Vir Das (@thevirdas) September 11, 2020
If you ask yourself how the hell the other side see's this information and reacts the way they do...answer is...they don't.
The danger of social networks is giving people the news and facts they want them to see.
But more dangerously....AI algorithms only giving people the facts and news they themselves want to see.

It's like you're cooking your own facts, and you're not that smart to begin with, so neither are your facts.
