Dead internet. People are algorithmically rewarded via dopamine feedback loops for increasingly extreme opinions because that's what gains the most attention on social media.

This is why so much leftwing shit is a big performance because it's largely a social consensus exercise, not politics. You don't hear these people discussing the labor theory of economics or just war doctrine. Instead they just sneer at people and scream and mock because these are social tools for a social purpose. The craziest one gets the most points.
