[quote=Anonymous]Gen Z is very susceptible to social media manipulation. That generation does not have the education or patience to read the NY Times or WSJ or The Economist or other well-sourced and fact-checked reporting. Those media outlets aren't perfect and sometimes get things wrong, but it's the best we have for daily news. Gen Z generally lacks the capacity to even engage with serious, fact-based journalism. And so the algorithms get them with spoon fed 20 second takes. And that goes whatever way Zuckerberg and META - and the Chinese government with TikTok - so choose. Those platforms control their minds. They can dial up support for Trump. And they can dial it down. There is a real lack of well-informed, authentic thought among Gen Z. They are play-doh. [/quote]
