- daveguy 1y agoThe simulation didn't cover the problem that the US is having right now -- intentional miscommunication. Unfortunately, there's a reason some countries employ warehouses full of trolls and propaganda spreaders. If you are losing the "game" spreading chaos will level the playing field. It will take the people of those countries to stop their leadership from acting in bad faith before things improve. This is also the reason some social media outlets have become dystopian hellscapes.

- frollogaston 1y agohttps://ncase.me/crowds/ https://ncase.me/crowds/ is kinda about this. Not intentional misinformation exactly, just about how ideas like anger are amplified when you have an overly connected social network. There's supposedly a sweet spot. Also, that's one of my favorite websites ever.
