      Not sure I agree. „Deserve“ would be the word to use to make you take blame for something you arent responsible for.

      For example: the „normal“ person is not able to understand very complex things and statistically does not work a cognitively demanding job.

      Manipulating these people through algorithms isnt exactly rocket science. I‘m not sure it is okay to blame them for it.

      What I would blame them for is not acting now. So no, I dont think „deserve“ is a good word to use. Lets do away with blaming each other and start working on a solution.

        Nah. Some people are driven by fault. You preach to people like you, I’ll preach to people like me. You aren’t going to force our brains to work differently because you get your feelings hurt by vocabulary. I voted in every presidential election since I was 18 and almost every midterm. I didn’t protest or organize political action so I didn’t do everything I could. I hold fault so I deserve what I got. Stop tone policing.

          Please stop gaslighting me, thanks. I never tone policed. I disagreed with you which I am perfectly allowed to, period.

          Perfect example of „slight disagreements“ leading to infighting.

            Buddy you got emotionally elevated by the word “deserve” to the point you had to chime in and correct my mistake. Different folks different strokes. You don’t get to police what drives other people. I had no problem admitting people are different but you for some reason can’t.
