The logical result of a world where there is no meaningful regulation on social media and they’ve cracked the code for constructing a cozy, individualized reality for every person that consumes algorithmically-weighted content.
So that you only get to see what YOU want to see! None of that bad stuff you don’t like. You won’t ever hear bad news ever again. Just keep clicking and it will aaaaall be over sooon. Ssssh, ssssssssh, yes, go to sleep.
I would argue that there’s a big difference between an intelectually honest disagreement, and fabricating facts, inventing realities and just plain and simply ignoring actual proof.
And that’s the problem with social networks. They amplify stupidity and the algorithm is made to enhance whatever the tech-bro billionaires want to enhance. And unfortunately most of them are disgustingly corrupt pieces of shit, when not downright nazis.
Why would they? They’re not voting for the AfD because they’re or aren’t Nazis. This is the same effect as Americans voting for Trump while the establishment was trying everything to paint him as a monster. Which he is. But it didn’t matter because the democratic system was offering these people smears instead of the governance they wanted. I think the same is happening here. In fact if there isn’t too much Nazi shit in these emails, this dump would launder the AfD’s image before their voters. E.g. “See they aren’t nearly as bad as they painted them as!”
I would vote left, and I hope that’d be the change of direction once people try the AfD and not get real improvements. But that’s much more an organizing job for the left to do than hoping people would just vote better. And I know work is being done. More is needed. I’m not in Germany and we have very similar problems here. 😄
I know in a way you are correct, but voting for a far right party heavily sponsored by billionaires because being done with the establishment is certainly a choice… This where I draw the line of not giving these people the benefit of the doubt
Unfortunately, not a single piece of shit voting for them will care.
We live in a world of pure intellectual and moral dishonesty.

Vote for the left? Also, there’s already Nazi shit in the emails. Hoping for enough shit is never gonna be enough
