The news realized that amygdala-bait drove "engagement". (I loathe that term used in its corporate sense) The US right wing realized that the firehose of lies could overwhelm their opposition. trump showed he could mock a disabled journalist and not have his approval drop. musk showed he could defame someone and get away with it in court. I don't have much hope that any of this will change soon.
