    Tangentially… I commented on a couple political posts on a popular corporate social media platform. The posts aligned with my political stance. Within 24 hours my feed was littered with batshit stupid right-wing lies and trolls.

    It is far better to not comment. Reality might have a left leaning bias, but popular online social media has a right-wing algorithm.

      Yeah when there are algorithms at play to keep your attention you really need to be careful how you participate. I’d rather just not though.
