You think your personalized feed is not manipulated like this either? Or imagine someone new to the platform, he's gonna immediately get bombarded by propaganda and disinformation, clicks on the videos, and then the personalized feed will feed them more of the same, radicalizing them even further.
And no, I'm not and I don't. You're clearly not getting the topic and why it is a problem.
i think we are talking about two entirely different things. you're talking about generalized stuff and I'm talking about a specific person's feed.
I'm not talking politics or other stuff. literally just talking a personalized feed. just for entertainment.
golly. not every single thing has to lead to the end of the world, man.
chill with the "propaganda and disinformation". I'm talking cats and anime and video games.
