In the short term you can just not log onto the outrage-o-verse. Long term solutions to the current state of affairs elude me.
The problem is the outrage economy affects everyone, not just participants.
Yep! That's why it's a short term solution.
Well the outrage-o-verse is leaking into reality with wingnuts occupying the capital of my country, waving confederate and trump 2024 flags to boot.
Not being on social media at all, I’m almost amused about the right wing comment. I don’t see that at all unless I read like nypost. It is a Facebook thing?
I'm a pinko left wing commie, and so are all my friends, followers, and people I follow. You can't get a purer bubble! But, my friends post things like "you won't believe what X said on OANN the other day. OUTRAGE!" So I just log off for a week. It's a just a property of human beings plus the engagement algorithms.
