Summary
The New Discourses Podcast with James Lindsay, Ep. 157
"We are the media now!" So we hear. Much of that media is social media, and social media is a psychological and political warfare battlespace. More than that, it's incredibly fake. What we see there is mostly a well-crafted illusion meant to distort our perceptions of social and political reality. In this short episode of the New Discourses Podcast, host James Lindsay walks you through some of the many ways what we see on social media simply cannot be taken at face value. Join him for an unsettling look behind the curtain of our social media unrealities.
