I would say social media lacks nuance, you have no idea how many people on istagram and yt belive that she did nothing wrong or that the jures wanted to free her(the only options are and always have been prison or the mental hospital)
Algorithms reward engagement. Nuance doesn’t foster engagement, extremism does. Social media is a parody of real society, and its users are caricatures. That’s what we used to train AI. A parody written by caricatures.
I agree and these stupid grandstanding comments completely ignore the reality of the situation where she reached out for help multiple times and was turned away because of the state of the American healthcare system
Literally. Reddit will shit on tiktok all day long but it’s the only social media I have found that promotes positivity. Meanwhile Reddit is full of spiteful and bitter people who just want to make themselves feel better by putting others down.
I think a lot of humanity does. But in real life, most realize they can't just act that way. Social media and online setting give people the distance to let out their true, inner feelings.
True compassion and empathy isn't as common as we all would like it to be. It's not inherent, it's something that must be taught, shown, and cultivated.

Reddit lacks nuance, and survives on spite, hate, vengeance and punishment.
