To me this is a call to get off the corporate controlled internet. People have been warning about this since like 2010, and I always agreed that there could be a danger, but I never realized just how bad it already is.

This is a kind of phenomena that I can only describe as internet psychosis. Considering how toxic all these platforms are, it's quite plain to see now that the people captured by them are not invested in reality and seem to be coalescing into a kind of psychotic frame of mind. Even people who aren't captured are affected by it, and I have no doubt that I've been subjected to multiple psyop and propaganda campaigns just by perusing sites like Twitter, Reddit and Youtube.

The modern internet is a warzone that weaponizes emotions. IMO, for the good of society and the future of the internet people need to get out as soon as possible and build new services that don't play into this.
