Comment on Using AI to create rage bait
Sunforged@lemmy.ml 3 days agoThat’s the problem though isn’t it? It’s very easy to lose people by appealing to their confirmation biases and playing up fear responses. The same methodology doesn’t work to pull them out of it because you’re going up stream, and there are literal decades of propaganda that need to be addressed when you’re talking about alternatives.
If you’re this impassioned about making a difference you efforts would be much better spent getting out and joining a organization that focuses on building community networks. You’re just screaming into the void on Facebook.

Wait, so then what is the goal of protests? It’s awareness is it not. What is the point of that awareness?

If you go out to a protest and aren’t networking then you’re doing it wrong.

That is exactly the point I am arguing. Going out to protest will not be as effective if you aren’t able to counter the efforts they will use on digital spaces to smear and spread bullshit like what is shown in this post. It’s jumping critical steps in making a proper defense before going on the offense.

If you missed my point so completely to think we are saying the same thing there isn’t much left to say.
