But for many consumers it's the raw sentiment (and perhaps its expression) that matters most, and for that the "fluff" and "doom scrolling" content can be worthwhile. A grand part of the internet is fueling discovery. There will always be some ads that steal time, though, and perhaps the OP is pointing out that advertising has evolved a bit (the "grift shift") from display ads to "thought leaders." Or rather that, as the internet grows, the gross revenue of "thought leadership" grows too.
- ilrwbwrkhv 3y agoI think a lot of OPs complaints seem to come about because what we are missing is lively debate. Back when tv was the main medium it was almost a panel or a debate which was pushing ideas. Lone writers could still write but wouldn't get the distribution required without being challenged by critics. Now, technology has given distribution without the counter opinion and that is causing all of this nonsense to grow unchecked.
