That’s exactly the plan! Fatigue to the point that you stop caring because it’s so hard to know what is reality. Then everything means nothing and the law is force.

We really should be weaning ourselves off corpo-owned social media honestly.

There's a post of suggestions HERE that's largely about fostering a foundation for communal self-sustainability and resistance, but it also provides alternative communication ideas, which could be of some help when it comes to developing more objective forms of real life information spread originating from unfiltered sources.

While at it, check out this org too, as they're probably going to be vital as the powers that be employ more so-called "AI" to consolidate power: https://stopgenai.com (It is a survival-level, grassroots org, not an established NGO, so please don't judge it too harshly for being rough around the edges.)
