      You totally realize that the news as its presented to you is only a tiny slice of reality and that a small cabal of reality-makers curate which stories go viral in order to control your emotions and thoughts and they get you every single time

      Your opinion is popular but I think it's increasingly untrue. In the modern $/click model the tail wags the dog. The tiny slice that goes viral is the slice that feeds the echo chamber what it wants to hear, so it's not a central cabal creating reality, it's the crowd.

      major news sites and big name journalists still mostly define the narrative. They wail and gnash their teeth that things like substack and twitter undermine them, but it is still largely manipulated Twitter / FB et al can choose to pump a story or suppress it, for example

      I do not disagree that the NYT pushes narrative, it's been documented. But the removal of gatekeepers is ongoing, and the $ demands traffic, and the editors know this, so whoever delivers the traffic gains market share over those who don't.

      Imagine instead of a central cabal dictating narrative, a crowdsourced memespace entity at the heart of each echo chamber that is a combination of the social media neural net of each chamber participant. What would that look like? It'd look like what we see with the wokes.

      I'm not saying they have total control, but they also don't need it. It is extremely possible to craft a narrative around virality. Sometimes it takes a few swings before you knock it out of the park. Ahmaud Arbery was a failed attempt to craft a george floyd

      One interesting thing is that you don't to consume the primary content to get the reaction it piggybacks on. All my outrage porn I get through RW people "reacting" to it for example. Surely this can be exploited back against the disease spreaders.

      This is a valuable observation. Very in line with Slate Star "toxoplasma of rage" if you're familiar. Not sure how pro or anti the ZeroHP wall is to those rationalism kids. Probably mixed. But that essay is very applicable to this conversation.

      Funny you mention this. I guess SSC was a gateway to the far right in a sense. It'd be more accurate to say the people accusing Scott that way were the gateways really in my case but eh.

      Scott is a unique case because he really believes that everyone is as willing to engage in mental contortionism to remain progressive as he is so he's free to play with and entertain all the contradictions. He looks at reality and sees it as a test for his progressivism.
