      Yeah, that mindset is practically universal now. It's the one thing we all share. It's a large part of the reason that I can't even visualize how a Trump supporter thinks, and it's honestly hard for me to even think of them as people. Most of the time I just think of them as 'oh, they're those creatures who don't wear masks or get vaccines so they can deliberately spread diseases, because they feed on the drama. Like mosquitos with malaria, except worse because the mosquitos don't actually know they're spreading a disease when they feed.'
      This video made me pause and think 'oh, Trump supporters probably do have an actual point of view', but even knowing my views are largely due to being in an echo chamber, it's still impossible for me to even imagine what their perspective is. Probably because with the algorithm, I'm rarely even exposed to their point of view. Then, because all sides are in our own echochamber, our views end up driven so far apart that even when we do speak our sense of what reality is and where we're coming from is so far apart that we can't even begin to understand each other.

      @@PixieoftheWood It's also hard for Trump supporters to think of brainwashed idiotic Leftists, who literally and unironically live in echo chambers, as anything more than scum to be filled with lead. Hard to see them as anything more than whining, festering, rot-filled maggots. It's hard to visualize how people can be so braindead and stupid that they listen to every lie the mainstream media put forth and drink the way a whore does with semen. Extremely difficult to view people who think murdering the unborn is somehow a woman's "right"-and people who burn down cities being racist while shouting about how anti-racist they are-as anything more than a cancer to society and a disease that needs to be removed with violence and extreme prejudice. Very hard to view "communists" as anything more than target practice.

    Figuring out how to game the algorythm was probably the closest I've ever come to having a Neo "He's beginning to believe" moment. If I have to read I bad news story, I go incognito so I don't get pushed stuff like that. I go seek out cute animal videos so my shorts feed is extremely blessed. If I see something that starts getting me into that negative loop, I hit "not interested" and move on as fast as possible. Now most of my recommendations are piano covers, sketch comedy, mini documentaries on any number of things and cute animal videos. It's pretty nice, not gonna lie.

I sometimes think about this social contract that we have, where we allow the govt to dispense "blind justice" because the alternative is that I might visit every pain, bewilderment, and horror upon this guy before pushing him over the edge of existence. He's now getting out so I have to decide whether to risk my own freedom or let him go.

    TH-cam's algorithm comes up with some pretty unfortunate ad placement sometimes. Today I watched a video about a guy in England who made a cute little Hobbit-style village for mice in his garden. It was preceded by an ad for pest control!
    And back in December when that RV blew up in Nashville, every time I watched a video about it, I'd get ads for RVs.

      That is not unfortunate at all, that is on purpose. TH-cam will match advertisers to videos containing the tags the advertiser wants to be associated with.
      That is for example why you will always get Monsanto ads on anything critical of Monsanto, cause they decided they want to create a counter narrative right where they are criticised and youtube provides them with the infrastructure to do that.
      By the same logic someone selling alcohol might anticipate to make the bigger profit, if they get 20 alcoholics to relapse as opposed to getting 20 random people interested in their product.
      Sometimes the ads don't land perfectly, like with that pest control ad, but often the choices are made very deliberately, like with that RV. Worried your RV will blow up? Better buy a new one.

      For most of us this is at least somewhat true. Whether your belief originates in religion, philosophy, childhood trauma or just common sense, the majority of us believe killing innocent people is wrong and something we would never do, as is abusing the weak or stealing from the destitute. By definition therefore, those who do these things have a different belief regardless what group they claim to belong to.

Every negative story a news outlet shows is designed to attract you attention and often invoke an emotion of anger, fear, etc. that makes you more likely to make the viewer or reader continue being fed this stuff. Hate-watching is completely separate from this topic as hate-watching is not some news covering the thing you hate it's just the content. Hate-watching is if a Democrat was to watch a Trump rally which isn't a common thing for someone to do whats more likely is a Democrat will watch a CNN bit that invokes anger in them about said Trump rally.

      Elegant and clever maybe, but this sketch couldn't get any less subtle.

It strays away from examples that would alienate audiences that have unknowingly fallen into echo chambers, the exact people that really need a reminder of this sort of thing.

This happens to pretty much every group not just flat earthers.

      Look at the censorship system on social apps. In theory, this is to avoid people from insulting each other and using bad language. But in practice, the guys writing those systems can add whatever they want. Ever heard of that pedophile's daughter working at Reddit? She had worked on the "blacklist" of Reddit to erase anything surrounding her father, to bury his dark secret. *That was no accident, she had purposefully used the censorship system of Reddit to hide something.*
