The usual leftist projection of their own sins on the targets of their hate.

Billions of people trusted a handful of noisy busybodies in the media and governments while their opponents were a quite diverse army of self-thinking, often quite isolated individuals.

In the beginning of this mass psychosis I felt like walking through a zombie apocalypse for weeks, until I joined twitter and only then encountered other opponents of the political insanity.

Digital spaces have been colonised and their unique dynamics exploited by fringe movements that instrumentalise hate and misinformation. These movements are opportunistic, agile and confident in exerting influence and persuading people.

Absolutely, this is just a confession
