They can only control certain aspects of the variable. They still have parts you can control. They still need their people to view posts and guess what, those posts still have comments.

I don’t actually think “they” control it in the way you think. I still think it’s profit and engagement based. They feed you stuff based on total user engagement. That’s why the are so many bots on the left that keep telling everyone on the left to disengage or quit the major platforms. They want to rebalance the algorithm to their content.

It’s a numbers game. The goal is to create more content. There’s a study that shows it takes a small percentage of a group to shift their views for the entire group to change. It’s 10%. The other aspect is the views expressed can’t be loose. They have to be incredibly immovable and confident. This is what the bots are doing on the right. The solution would be to mimic that, not avoid it. It just depends if you’re looking to stop or fight them or if you’re just casually wanting to observe and complain daily. Social media is one of the critical tools for fascists.
