Aquila Lupus 🇳🇴 @ernie68.bsky.social · 24/09/2026Yes. In SM you create your own in-group. And you are probably much more likely to almost uncritically accept what your own in-group tells you. It is how religions are spread, and cults perpetuate. Mix this with malicious bots with in-group 'weight' and boom. 010 0
Aquila Lupus 🇳🇴 @ernie68.bsky.social · 24/09/2026It means that the platform's output mest be overseen in real time or not at all. And this probably not feasible. As a minimum, ALL posts viewed by, say, +1000 persons should be archived for research. 020 0
Aquila Lupus 🇳🇴 @ernie68.bsky.social · 24/09/2026Childrem are being taught to hate and to 'other' from a platform that is tailored to prey on their emotions - and one that is not possible to hold accountable.

Aquila Lupus 🇳🇴 @ernie68.bsky.social · 24/09/2026Until the subversive intent and effect of the social media platforms and the press is recognized - this won't change. Social media needs gotten rid of totally. Ironic, I know - but until we can think of a solution that won't lead straight to nazism, we have to. Possibly by removing anonymity/bots 110 0
Aquila Lupus 🇳🇴 @ernie68.bsky.social · 24/09/2026UK will not return to the EU in 'this world' for three simple facts: 1. Membership-proponents appeals to the intellect. 2. Anti-Membership to the feelings. 3. UK has little control of the platforms that form opinion - and those platforms are actively making UK go more far-right. 320 0
Aquila Lupus 🇳🇴 @ernie68.bsky.social · 23/09/2026Being 'pure' was more important than being against the nazis... But they didn't know what we know - but the signs of bad things were there.

People with money induced empathy deficiency will always find their followers to groom their egos. Internet has just made it easier for them. How many of the tech-bros are fascist now? Most of them back Trump. 0151 0
Aquila Lupus 🇳🇴 @ernie68.bsky.social · 07/09/2026In any population, there are around 30% who will go fascist if allowed by societal norms. Every country occupied by Germany in WWII had a sizable collaborator contingent fully signing up to the ideology, even UK/US. Communism/WWI/Wall street got Nazis in, Internet this lot. 3213 0
Aquila Lupus 🇳🇴 @ernie68.bsky.social · 06/09/2026The 'Labour' party seems these days to be there to lure workers to vote against their own interests. In a way like the National Socialists weren't the party of workers either, despite their 'Arbeiter' part. Hundreds of Labour MPs ok with this leads me to suspect Britain is fascist in the core. 011 0

Aquila Lupus 🇳🇴 @ernie68.bsky.social · 19/08/2026BBCs charter merely has to allow for metrics/clicks be collected to end up like this. It is the cheapest and most convenient metric to use.
