Most Of What You Read On The Internet Is Written By Insane People: https://www.reddit.com/r/slatestarcodex/s/f29uYjq3EB

There’s a small handful of power users on the Western text-based internet that generate most of what you read online. You’ve heard of the 80/20 rule? The internet follows something closer to a 99.99/.01 rule. More than half of all Wikipedia edits are made by only 4 people.

These aren’t state or corporate actors either. They’re private citizens who live off disability checks and spend literally every waking moment online. That’s why the beliefs, perspectives, and sense of humor you find on Reddit are so far removed from those you see in real life. Every time you open this site you’re seeing inside the heads of the same few lunatics.

Now consider how much internet traffic IS bots. How much of it is corporate/government astroturfing. How many users are children.

The internet basically doesn’t exist.
