Probably just poor phrasing on my part.
The video I posted goes into more about how propaganda in the form of flooding you with to much info works and the problems that AI is adding to it.
It wasn't poor phrasing, friend. It's exactly correct.
People absolutely give up. They give up because the truth is depressing and the lies are depressing and it's exhausting trying to police our politicians' corruptions and the media is complicit and it all seems hopeless.
It's easier to just put your head in the sand until trouble knocks on your door. And the sad truth is that people will continue to eat shit until there's nothing left to eat at all. Only then, when they are hungry and cold and scared, will they finally understand that they should not have given up.
