{1.2a2e2a3} choose-your-own-adventure reality
topics:
By losing ““the media”” as a trusted institution, we’re losing our shared truth.
Individuals go down their algorithmic rabbit hole, which tends to favor misinformation, which leads them to trusting legacy media less, which pushes them toward their algorithm, and so on.
If we can each invent our own version of reality through the content we consume, shared truth does not exist anymore. It just matters what you’ve been exposed to and feels accurate to you.
Warzel frames this as “choose-your-own-adventure reality” 🤌🏻
