Tracking the Leftist talking points shows you the current maneuverings of the herd of GNDN (goes nowhere, does nothing) people. Right now, they are focusing on blaming social media algorithms for producing an evil Right-wing surge.

It turns out as usual that the truth is more nuanced; algorithms are dumb scripts that promote more extreme content because it is more interesting and people, having consumed the less extreme content, need a new high.

As it turns out, “more extreme” pushes people toward more cynicism toward the Narrative, and those evil algorithms reward them with inflammatory clickbait:

“It’s kind of this vicious cycle where these social media algorithms are naturally going to be favorable towards content that is a little bit more inflammatory and click-worthy,” said Ali Mortell, the director of research at Democratic data firm Blue Rose Research.

The Left has unintentionally admitted here that they depend on artificially lowering the level of dialogue to avoid people Noticing off-Narrative stuff like the failure of the system and that the first world is following Rome and Athens into the abyss of collapse.
