No, it is a win-win for Twitter and FB and YT. They have made billions on the faux tribalism fight. Look at Parler: it is a ghost town because people want to argue and pwn the other side. Just talking to other people that agree with you is boring and not sticky. Twitter and FB and YT and FN and CNN and the rest have the sole goal of outrage to get more views and more ad revenue. This is the root of the problem.
- vonmoltke 6y ago> the sole goal of outrage to get more views and more ad revenue How does outrage lead to more ad revenue? Who wants their brand advertised next to outrage? How many outraged people click on ads?
- amanaplanacanal 6y agoPeople who are outraged stay on the platform longer and view more ads. The platform gets paid.
