    One of the issues was the media was very over-focused on every little nitpicky thing to the point many people just stopped giving a shit. Social media took that hyper-focus to 11, vastly exasperating the situation. So when anything big happened, many just didn’t bother to look.

    The boy cried wolf 100 times when there was only an ant; when there was a wolf nobody cared to listen to the cries.


    For example, I remember this fish-feeding story. People made a deal about how he was feeding fucking koi.
