In the rush to make their opinions known, many social media users have spread dubious claims, hurting their efforts to help bring peace to the Middle East.

Real life dystopia has become so boring, people not directly involved intensify drama online to bring the conflict into their online lives.

An opinion piece I find quite fitting for Lemmy as well. I wonder how a “boring” just fact based rational social media would look like?

    Ok but like a whole lot of people have died in a short period of time there. Maybe we can worry about what people on Twatter have to say later?

    Nothing is new about this. I remember when I was a kid seeing all these bored middle aged people lining up for Black Friday shopping just to feel literally anything.
