Btw about social: found very interesting thing about twitter:
The legal basis that X asserts in the filing is not terribly interesting. But what is interesting is that X has decided to involve itself at all, and it highlights that you do not own your followers or your account or anything at all on corporate social media, and it also highlights the fact that Elon Musk’s X is primarily a political project he is using to boost, or stifle, specific viewpoints and help his friends. In the filing, X’s lawyers essentially say—like many other software companies, and, increasingly, device manufacturers as well—that the company’s terms of service grant X’s users a “license” to use the platform but that, ultimately, X owns all accounts on the social network and can do anything that it wants with them.

As drinkypoo pointed out above, it’s all about the algorithms. If social media wasn’t driven by advertising and engagement - if it was implemented as societal infrastructure for the well-being of all citizens and the financial profit of nobody - then it would be a great good in society. As it exists currently, it’s a Trojan horse whose belly is full of contagious cancer

Unfortunately the US media has been making it a nail biter on purpose when in reality it is not. Get out and vote in numbers that cannot be denied. And then get everyone else around you to vote also.
