It's a video about why the Internet and society itself is so divided nowadays.

Some valid points, but then they haven't offered any solutions and promoted the same platforms who use algorithms that are the cause of the problem by their own research.

But they did offer solutions?

Unless the solution was in the Ground News ad section, then they didn't. All they said in the "Something More Positive" was going back to the internet 20 years ago, which is not a solution...

So you think their offered solution is unworkable? That's different than them not having offered one - maybe you could say more about that?

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Solution requires a resolution. Unless you have a time machine, that's not a solution. We can't go back in time.

No, but we can revert to how things were within a system. Just because you don't understand something doesn't invalidate it.

There are plenty of solutions to improve the situation or change the direction, reversal is not possible. Neither from technological side nor societal side.

Reversal isn't possible... You poor bastard.

Edit: Autocorrect typo.

They did offer the solution to break off into smaller subsets instead of shouting your opinion into the void so it can be heard by the entire world.

How that is achieved is more complicated and depends on the person.
