Yeah, good thing we don't have evidence of any social media company's algorithms radicalizing and promoting more and more extreme content to people.
Could you imagine? Companies actively radicalizing people for money??
Fuck it's almost like they promote things that have high engagement and rage and fear happen to be our most reactive emotions.
