My Twitter feed is curated and pretty eclectic. What's notable to me is that, from reading the feed, I really have no idea wtf is going on and who the villains are. All the major current events feel this way now. Or at least, they do on Twitter.
Note: I used a shorthand ("villains") which I normally hate, bc it papers over decades or even millennia of human action. It's useful to recognize the human condition is a mess. But in this case, when a bunch of people were slaughtered at a concert, there was a pretty direct act of villainy, and yet it's somehow possible to miss that in my feed. Surreal.
Great observation. Misinformation, disinformation, psy ops, propaganda, embellishment etc.
Dystopian.
