Over the past few months, Facebook has started to show that we are, in fact, basically living inside the movie Idiocracy.
As a result, my ‘Unfollow’ button has been given a serious working over. It’s often better than unfriending somebody, in that they’ll never know you think they’re an idiot, and it’s permanent.
I was using the ‘Snooze for 30 days’ option, but then a month later you’re forced to see their nonsense again.
Plandemic, videos of so-called medical experts talking about how the virus that has now killed more than 600 000 people is a hoax, Bill Gates injecting tracking devices via a vaccine, 5G – yes, more so now than ever, we are surrounded by wilful ignorance.
In his latest Last Week Tonight segment, John Oliver has discussed why some folks are prone to believing these things, how to distinguish fact from fiction, and what you can do to help those who have gone down the wormhole.
I guess that last one only applies if you aren’t a fan of the ‘unfollow’:
