The internet, and the information networks it could support, was supposed to be the very thing you describe, but all it did was create bubbles. All this will do is reinforce those bubbles as the echo chambers cherry pick what is convenient to their causes.
- corbulo 4y agoIf every bubble has a video of the same authority figure(s) (within the group or outside of the group) saying directly contrary things it has to have an effect. The internet really was that though until the last 8-10 years. Once it reached a critical mass and started being actively gamed by world govs as a major objective it changed dramatically to what it is now. Now the masses are becoming just as paranoid and skeptical as a baseline as the cypherpunks were.
