A long time ago, I kinda sorta noticed during the toxic 2016 presidential election in the United States.
But when I (and a lot of other people) really noticed was right after russia invaded Ukraine, since then the barrage of non-stop, hollow, fact-less infotainment published multiple times a day, every single day, has been relentless.
They publish A LOT of unverified hearsay with wishful thinking - meaning “shit you want to hear”. They’ve put putin on death’s door, the imminent collapse of the russian economy and society, or an imminent kremlin coup, countless times in the past year and a half.
Yet another casualty in the clickbait enshittication of the internet.
