Ever notice how each social network leaves you with a different emotional residue? that’s not random. it’s design. not just by the companies but by the shadow players upstream. russia’s touch feels like apathy. scroll long enough and your will dissolves. you stop caring, stop believing. the goal isn’t persuasion = it’s paralysis. “nothing’s true, so why try?” china leaves you with obedience. or maybe shame. you sense that you’re being watched. so you stay quiet. smooth edges. no chaos. just algorithms nudging you into submission, one clean feed at a time. the U.S.? you walk away feeling addicted, hyped, angry, tribal. it’s all dopamine and division. they don’t censor = they stimulate. keep you buzzing, scrolling, fighting. you think you’re choosing sides. really, you’re just feeding the machine. UK? that cold, cynical irony. memes on memes. clever, disarming, empty. nothing matters, but it’s funny. the crown found a way to turn skepticism into sedation. israel? precision. eerily targeted. you feel like the ad knows your past. it probably does. their psyops run like startups. lean, personal, surgical. france? it’s the vibe of elite contempt. curated feeds, soft power. you’re allowed in = but never quite belong. the gate is velvet, but it’s still a gate. not saying every post is an op. just saying… you can often feel who wrote the script.
X is down, Nostr is up. Bitcoin is up.
