social media doesn't make us stupid... social media companies do, with their stupid implementations....
Social media that is properly neutral will never be stupid. The problem is anti-conservative bias and censorship is skewing social media in a bad way. When Elon said he's going to buy twitter for free speech I created an account on twitter.

I connected to political conservatives, mostly Canadians. I "liked" a bunch of things. Never retweeted and never commented on anything. Just likes.

I made my first comment today on chess.

This post is offensive content? No certainly not. However, my likes and my association with a political movement has gotten me censored. Call me crazy but I think it's tremendously unhealthy to censor people because of their associations.
