Except it's not their fault. At least, not entirely. Every single fucking centralized social platform tweaks its content algorithm to drive engagement, and they found that the best way was to piss you off. They shove it in your face until you can't help but say something to fight the unending flow of utter bullshit.

That's true, though the simple solution is to not be on such platforms. You do not have to let them "shove it in your face until you can’t help it".

Yet are we not on Lemmy, flooded with posts detailling every little thing that Musk and Trump do?

all hail keyword filter blockers! nowadays i only see trumpet/muskat in posts that don't mention their names in the title, and tbf i don't mind staying a little informed on their latest pro-dystopia moves, but now it's not as much a firehose of bullshit to my face every day all day, but an occasional squirt gun hit

[–] Ashiette 3 points 5 days ago

I have the same filters on. It does not lessen the fact that lemmy is obsessed with those two juggaloos.

I believe that, their plan has always been to saturate the news so that people talked about them, always. So when time comes to vote, you go for the candidate you think you know best, a.k.a the one you didn't stop hearing about.

That, and the fact that people are saturated with your shenanigans, to the point that you can do anything stupid without people caring.
