Clown Population

Clown Population. The clowns inside the White House are only a small fraction of a total society of mock for mock, reactionary mocking, clowns. The entire nation is a "basket case of clowning around" on social machines / HDTV media machines / mockery.
People like to play a game of psychological denial and say ONLY MAGA is the clowns, only the White House is the clowns. It's the entire population of Untied States of America.

Pretty much, it all comes down about what maximizes user's time on the platform so they can see the maximum amount of ads and produce the most amount of unpaid labor in the form of comments/content.
Social media can be good though if a creator is genuinely a positive role model that a teen otherwise wouldn't have due to their environment (speaking from experience), but given this focus on profit rather than positive social change and connection, it just ends up being hateful shit most of the time.
