I think that Facebook started it, with it’s algorithms, but everything we see is curated, and I just can’t help believe that my anger is bespoke, and that’s fucking stupid. But there’s no way to stop it, save logging off.

I don’t use Facebook, but here, Reddit, and YT, I’ve found that the algorithms are just a mirror of who I am. If I comment or read a post in r/hitman or r/boomershooters I get more posts from those subs. If I watch a Brandon Tenold video or Oddity Archive on YT, I get more movie review recommendations and such.

I think one way to stop it, is to have no anger. The algorithm is a stupid machine. If you watch a video about Nazis, that’s like typing Nazis into Google. It’s going to give you Nazis. If you watch a video about cats, then your anger is no longer bespoke, and your joy and happiness is curated for you.
