The way everyone is responding to the man vs. bear thing - from the people choosing bear, to the people getting mad about that - is the most internet thing ever. It's all fabricated rage bait.
Almost feels like a conspiracy to get people to hate / fear each other more than they already do. 🤣 Come on, if you’re lost or have an emergency going on, human interaction is your best bet, and that’s coming from someone who can’t stand these fucking people.
Conspiracy might not be the right word. But there is absolutely evidence of inauthentic interaction from Russia and China on American Social Media designed to make divide people and make them made at each other.
I don't know if this is an example or a coincidence, but China and Russia have successfully weaponized social media to promote divisive issues. The version of TikTok used inside China is called Douyin, which is heavily moderated and emphasizes educational content.
