    I know it is hard to prove, but I think mainstream anti-social media is to blame for its growth. I remember when I used YouTube many years ago, it tried to push me into sexism, by constantly recommending sexist Manosphere trash. A friends Instagram is completely taken over by it. Even a relative, who almost 99% of the time gets cute cat videos on Instagram has 1% of vile racist shit on her recommendations.

    Let’s remember that there are threat actors that would profit from these things becoming common.
