Is the Fediverse part of the solution to the global rise of far-right populism?
@evan Yes, but it's more like part of the solution.
Far-Right populism doesn't only abuse algorithmic tendencies but also psychological functions of people.
@gelbphoenix I don't understand your answer.
@evan We would need also to strengthen digital and especially media literacy. Populists (especially those on the far-right) play with fear and psychological terror to manipulate people.
Media literacy has worsened at least in the western world – if not globally.I also would guess that this is why bipartisanship seems so unthinkable for many.
