We as a society failed to see the bad thing about the internet and the services we are creating. May be it’s capitalism or may be it’s our naive trust that humans will figure it out, but the internet exaggerated our ability to lie and cover up that lie by lying again and again. People do that in real life too but the ease, quickness and scale at which one can lie and provide corroborative lies is something we completely missed. The 2016 election cycle made is when people fully realized this and q is the manifestation of this. Prior to the internet grifters would just operate in a geographically limited area but now it’s basically free to reach the whole world. They are taking advantage of every news event. Some worried that AI would the downfall of our civilization but the internet started it and AI with deepfake could just complete it. May be I am being too pessimistic ut I don’t think we can fix it at this point.
