That is not how anything works. Hatred and bigotry is easy to spread because they are simple low effort messages, anti-racism isn’t. It requires thought and context, everything the target audience for racism lacks.
It doesn’t work that way; peddling bigotry and hate is an asymmetric tactic. It’s a lot easier to make slop that triggers people’s base fears in their lizard brain than it is to appeal to their enlightened sense of reasoning.
Brandolini’s law (or the bullshit asymmetry principle) is an Internet adage coined in 2013 by Italian programmer Alberto Brandolini. It compares the considerable effort of debunking misinformation to the relative ease of creating it in the first place. The adage states:
The amount of energy needed to refute bullshit is an order of magnitude bigger than that needed to produce it.[1][2]
Iirc it takes like 6-8 times more exposure to true information to correct disinformation. Damage is done quite fast in the meantime and racist/capitalist content is widely prevalent and systematic
So if it’s so effective, use AI to spread anti-racist content.

Turns out the guys that own the big tech and media companies just happen to be racists.
