I spent 9 days glued to a bird flu feed in 2023 and now I think everyone online is playing the same game
Back in early 2023 I got sucked into one of those tracking threads for bird flu in dairy herds. I was checking it 15 times a day, every day, for 9 straight days. One afternoon the thread went nuts over a single anonymous post with zero proof. Within an hour, three big accounts had quote posted it like it was confirmed fact. I watched that claim get debunked, copied, and re-debunked inside the same afternoon. That was the day I stopped believing most of these online conspiracies are even about the truth. It feels like the same 20 people passing one rumor back and forth to get attention. So my real question: how do you sort actual whistleblower stuff from the rage bait in these debates? What's your filter?
