    The thing is, all companies have been manipulating what you see for ages. They are so used to it being the norm, they don’t know how to not do it. Algorithms, boosting, deboosting, shadow bans, etc. They sre themselves as the arbiters of the"truth" they want you to have. It’s for your own good.

    To get to the truth, we’d have to dismantle everything and start from the ground up. And hope during the rebuild, someone doesn’t get the same bright idea to reshape the truth into something they wish it could be.
