    Tangentially… I commented on a couple political posts on a popular corporate social media platform. The posts aligned with my political stance. Within 24 hours my feed was littered with batshit stupid right-wing lies and trolls.

    It is far better to not comment. Reality might have a left leaning bias, but popular online social media has a right-wing algorithm.

      Yeah when there are algorithms at play to keep your attention you really need to be careful how you participate. I’d rather just not though.

    Picture a middle school cafeteria. That’s close to the representation of who is in the comment sections. I’m sure of it. Maybe there’s a teacher or two, the janitor, the person serving lunch. The adults generally have their mind elsewhere. The majority of users are going to be kids.

    I’ve learned I can’t make any comment that is negative about AI or else the dbzer0 nutbags will appear.

    I will seriously consider if it’s worth getting swarmed by assholes with bad-faith arguments that all support each other’s insane logic.
