      If they’re not going to account for the thumbs on the scale, what the fuck is the point? I get that there are other issues, but to what extent do these factors influence people’s decisions?

        Media sets the stage. Without it, there is no narrative - or rather, the narrative is based in whatever your physical social connections are.

        The latter has collapsed for a lot of people. Because the former has overtaken it in almost every measure.

        When that media “stage” is fundamentally corrupt, We get what we get.
