The galaxy brain chain doesn't end there. The next step is realizing that the line "news is propaganda" is itself propaganda to make social media dwellers think they're safe because social media is not "news", and absorb social media propaganda more uncritically. https://x.com/ModernDadSG/status/1803553694723756431

the next step after that is realizing that social media propoganda is propagated by an entirely different segment of interests from politics (ad hungry platforms) that intentionally show you polarizing things to keep you scrolling so you can see more McDonald’s ads. At this point, you either join farcaster or become a hermit.

Plus social media comments are individualized (at least on Instagram) which leads to potentially bigger problems

A very valid point It's important to be critical of all information we consume, whether it's social media, traditional news, or even things like the "news is propaganda" message itself.

This could be the greatest threat to society and stability we face. There is definitely a focused effort going on to dislocate people from the concept that facts and critical thinking exist.

It will really be interesting when the social media propaganda is being generated by an all-seeing AGI in furtherance of its own interests.

We need to think critically about everything we read. And maybe using memes to greater extent 😂

Opposite ideas shouldn't be demonized but they should be welcomed and talked over until we move on from it. Platform doesn't matter. But I think social media became a very strong reliable alternative to news.
