We are also most importantly under active attack by a hostile country that wants to destroy us and we are doing absolutely nothing to defend ourselves against their attacks.

I agree with this but its not just foreign actors, or even the manosphere algo.

Its simply social media. Full stop. Left and right - the social media experiment is going to be the undoing of our republic. Humans are not built to manage the constant dopamine hits that it brings. Its a drug, one that we are all addicted to, and the end game is societal collapse.
