It’s really disturbing seeing social media start leaning this way. It’s very obvious controlled fascist propaganda. Have you seen what Twitter is now? It’s actually creepy and insane.

Remove yourself from algo driven sites, set up an rss reader and hand pick your media, subcribe to newsletters of trustworthy media sites, delete useless apps from your phone or better jailbreak it and install graphene, get an e-reader secondhand and start reading etc etc.

This is how everything works under capitalism.

Capitalism? Are these paid services? This is bribery. They are getting something from the government for pushing their agenda.

They are paid services. The ad companies pay the services for access to the services resources.

Ads? Are they not talking about user generated content?

Yep. Has been since before I was born. I don’t know if it’s ever been this blatantly obvious before. But I guess it always seems that way when you’re living through it.
