Yeah but my anger and frustration comes from the algorithm trying to show me shit that I have zero interest in. It’s just annoying as shit watching these morons argue with each other over a new video game having too many or not enough gay characters. Who the fuck cares?
Steve Bannon and his ilk care. For every one of you and I that don’t click on the video there’s any number of people who do click on it and get radicalized further. Thats the whole point of “gamer” outrage online. To try and feed impressionable people right wing propaganda and push them further right. We dunk on it a lot in this community but it’s a real fucking problem.
Delete your Facebook, delete your Twitter, stop using Instagram. Get 2 of your friends to do the same. Starve the beast.
