Psychological stimulation is addictive?
DailyMail type press / alt-righty YouTube channels / etc etc are all very good at telling their audience that someone is out to get them - that their way of life is being judged by powers beyond their control & that they should be angry about it. Keeping their audience in a permanant state of fight or flight due to vaguely defined external threats has been very profitable for them.
- DrBazza 5y agoTo be honest, that's the UK media in a nutshell - Daily Mail hates the EU. Daily Mirror hates Johnson. Guardian hates the Tories, and the NHS has been at risk since, well, ever. There's a lot of hate and hysteria from all sides.
