      Yez, but not in the way you’re thinking. People have been radicalized by misogynists on youtube and tiktok that Russia has paid for. It’s been proven for some of them, and if you think they’re the only ones, you’re living in a fantasy land.

      Unfortunately, I think the media has blared the things people should be caring like crazy. Problems remain:

      • People only internalize their personal experience, and they only care so much about what they see on the screen.
      • To the extent they may care, they also see a counter campaign of folks claiming otherwise, and they don’t really have a good way to casually know which viewpoint to take seriously.
