I mean there's a reason why politics have become so polarizing after #Facebook & #Twitter came to the scene, they keep promoting batshit conspiracists and then smother your face with them, it keeps polarizing people, it's a vicious cycle.

@deltatux @EposVox Yeah, it really pushed some people into a corner where they’ll stop acknowledging facts if they’re told by someone they don’t share a political view with. Used to be like that with opinions, but now it’s the whole reality they don’t accept. It’s really strange.

As it turns out, centralized social media can be pretty easily weaponized as a means of disinformation against many people.
