FYI ATS
#8
(09-05-2024, 02:29 PM)midicon Wrote: I noticed a change when ATS put up those little button icons for Twitter and Facebook. I can't recall when that was but it did lead to an increase in membership and perhaps a decline in quality and tone.

They've been using dark patterns to keep people addicted to their twitter and facebook feeds. With the newer generations being raised on the xbox and playstation and their smartphone, they've not learned how to interact with people, how to listen, and how to empathize. They get their dopamine hits from the likes they get and the supportive comments they receive regardless of whether those comments are real or being made by 3rd party bot farms which simply reinforces their own personal worldviews without ever exposing them to different ways of thinking. Then the sites used algos to keep feeding people the stuff they "liked" ad-nauseum until the end user is in nothing but an echo chamber. Add to the a media the blatantly and knowingly pushes the political agenda of only one side of the political spectrum and you have all the confirmation bias one could possibly ask for.

Every try asking one of these people about their own personal positions on the crap they parrot day in and day out? I have. They can never answer, then they get mad like I've somehow tricked them. They aren't being tricked by me, they've been psychologically programmed by fascist government dictators and corporate execs. They never look at the book beyond the cover, and they actively ignore and even fight against any information they receive that goes against the programming, regardless of the voracity of the claims made.
