Yes, that's very much the type of brain virus we've been dealing with for around a decade. Social media did not help. Critical thinking went out the door completely. And the pandemic made is massively worse, driving people into deep dark holes characterized by ignorant resonance with a healthy dose of zero thought given to everything.
Right now you have entire news networks defending --actively defending-- a brutal dictator who exported death in the form of drugs, tortured, jailed and killed his own people. I almost feel like I am watching a primitive primate culture from space driven to rage without a clue or care of where reality lies.
I think this will pass eventually, but it might take another ten years.
