Ordinary everyday people should not be the enemy but it’s easier said than done when they take that digitally curated world view and verbally / physically abuse other people or join ICE. We really should see them in part as addicts hooked on digital crack but even if we accept that the rehabilitation process is not going to be easy.
How do you break a narrative machine that comes as close to being zapped directly into peoples minds as possible? Without control of the algorithm, it’s going to be increasingly difficult to challenge their divisive narratives. It may have to come to people wanting to get away from social media and that’s also becoming increasingly difficult now that it’s been so heavily and effectively monetized.
Not trying to say there’s no hope but it’s an uphill battle to say the least.
The solution is simple but not easy, it is culture.
Culture as the zeitgeist and the common grounds of society. As the shared values of the community.
How do you penetrate these mediatic walls that the dominant class has created.
Creating music that reaches all ears, visuals that are shared against the algorithm, messages that are clear and understandable for all.
And for this messages, platforms out of the control of the capital, media from the community.
YES, this is very difficult but this is the path. And it is not impossible because humans crave humanity and the X platforms will die because they are a soulless corporate machinery.

Thank you, yes your words describe it nicely.
