Baumeister warns that we don't have the ability to deal with negativity on social media, because our brain evolved to heed warnings from a close community of hunter-gatherers instead of hundreds or thousands of strangers. "So, hearing negative things from a large number of people has to be devastating," he says.
I was just speaking with @FreeinTX in another thread about what's allowed on mainstream social media.
Past couple years and especially this year I've noticed a ton of people borderline or even overly naming the jew on mainstream social media and not just keeping their accounts, but also attracting support. Here's the example I gave - no exaggeration and my account is 100% normie safe and power level hidden so this isn't the algorithm feeding me these things.
I just opened Instagram and went to the third post which was from a moderate news channel that attracts both left and right. It mentioned israel and here's a sample comment that has been sitting there since yesterday:
" Lmao Israel didn't even exist before WWII. It literally is a fake state set up by the west. You look like a tribe member tho so I'm not surprised you simp for one of the most evil nations in history"
No ban. Someone called him antisemitic and someone else liked his comment (the cool guy's comment, they agreed israel is trash)
Elves on YouTube is another good example we all know about.
Are you guys seeing this on mainstream social media and other surprising places too?

The lawsuit claims CJ had exchanged explicit photos through the platforms and “became obsessed with his body image”. It also claims his time on the platforms caused sleep deprivation and he would often be on Instagram at 3am.
It claims CJ’s death by suicide was the “proximate result of the unreasonably dangerous Instagram, Snapchat and Facebook products he used” and that they were not “reasonably safe”.
