Facebook has demonstrated that appealing to e̷m̷o̷t̷i̷o̷n̷ their ego is much more profitable than trying to convince people using l̷o̷g̷i̷c̷ their superego.
FTFY.
And to think that people believed the Internet was going to bring out the best of humanity.
As opposed to why it was built, to simultaneously help wage and, as well as possible to survive, imminent nuclear war. Let's withhold judgment until it's been tested fairly.
It’s just served as a massive amplifier of idiotic ideas.
False choice. Perhaps the best of humanity is our idiotic ideas. 'Idiot' from the Greek 'ideotes' for everyman. Itself from 'idios' for one's own, the plural of which means one's own people. So yeah, idiotic about sums it up.
Couple that with C̷a̷p̷i̷t̷a̷l̷i̷s̷m̷’̷s̷ ̷ ”̷m̷o̷n̷e̷y̷ i̷s̷ e̷v̷e̷r̷y̷t̷h̷i̷n̷g̷”̷ g̷u̷i̷d̷i̷n̷g̷ p̷r̷i̷n̷c̷i̷p̷l̷e̷s̷ the id.
It isn't just capitalism, or money, or victory, or sex, or big-fish-eats-small-fish, underneath these farsical electoral ceremonies we perform. I'd start to think the problem wasn't the internet either, or homo idiota at all, except it seems to me that our fellow beasts probably all work in basically the same way. I wonder if they get disgusted by "the politics."
