My problem with Biden getting everyone back to normalcy is I really believe that with social media being such a big part of our lives, and having such a massive influence over politics and our political views, that we will still continue being outraged over everything.
2012/2013 the recommendation feature went live on social media (YouTube, Facebook), 2014-2015 Trump comes on the scene, and suddenly we have Trumpism and extreme partisanship with no room for proper discourse.
If you start tracking stuff back, there are some direct links between those things.
And we've had it easy here. Social media has played some pretty big roles in genocide in Myanmar, and definitely helps drive religious violence in the Middle East or even India.
My point being that even if Trump is gone, the next 'Trump' can very easily start driving the outrage yet again.
How much of this stupid election fraud is being driven on social media?
And I say that as someone who 100% believes that the media is complicit in a lot of ##### that our governments pull because of their inability to show proper dissidence whether due to the corporate overlords, or simply being terrible media companies.
