Edward Bernays would be proud.

How long have I've been posting that little blurb above?

Mingle it with the Mandela Effect, and your own stubborn cognitive dissonance, and the blind guide will lead you anywhere.

A few years ago Facebook did an experiment with their users. They wanted to see if/how negative info affected people. Facebook set algorithms so that mostly/only negative posts would appear in some people’s news feeds. The results... those people affected began to make negative posts.
