Lemmy is teaching me things by accident.
Most recently; I've started learning media literacy and now I can see all the same manufactured consent and narrative shaping that exists in legacy media and social media like Facebook and reddit; but in .world and lemmee too
I will always link Masses, Elites, and Rebels: The Theory of "Brainwashing" when this subject comes up, haha.
I wish the .worlders & lemmee's would open up a book to learn this for themselves.
Lol
