Summary
Are we discovering reality through the information we consume—or are we being conditioned to accept a version of reality that has been manufactured for us?

Social Media has turned into a platform hosting deepfake information; manipulated photos, altered video clips, and memes that say something quoted that wasn't truly said by the person.

The algorithms steer our emotions to form an opinion and gain a perception that has been manipulated. Even when the truth of the fraus has been revealled, its too late. The mind already processed it and made a decision.
