Yeah, but the astroturfing botfarms are only activated to foment “oohh aahh yeah gotta be responsible with our children’s debt” opinions when it’s the other way around.

I mean, they’re all doing what they’re paid for and the general public can’t be arsed to be smart about it, call bullshit and cut off the value extraction because of perceived inconveniences (data harvesting = ability to manipulate/steer public opinion = value to sell to those seeking power & control). the populace is the commodity being sold here.

We are all cooked
