Politics is very silly, yet also cool and badass. Here is a brief explanation on how it works.
You have 3 groups of kitty cats.
Group A kitty cats refer to themselves as "Liberals", or "Progressives".
Group B kitty cats refer to themselves as "Conservatives", or "Traditionalists"
Group C kitty cats refer to themselves as "Entrepreneurs", or "Technology companies".
What happens next is interesting.
Group A calls Group B evil. Group A accuses Group B of the wrongs of all of mankind.
Group B calls Group A evil. Group B accuses Group A of the wrongs of all of mankind.
Group C makes platforms for Group A and Group B to argue. In exchange for this "free platform", they collect data such as your name, address, telephone number, and anything else you'll willingly give them. Then Group C will sell this data to advertisers, AI research firms, and anyone else who is interested.
Group C continues to make immense profit off Group A and Group B. It is in Group C's best interest to continually stoke the flames of Group A and Group B. The more Group A and Group B fight, the more money Group C (and Group C's friends) make.
The kitty cats in Group C are virtually indifferent to Group A and Group B, however they realize it is in their best interest to align with whichever group of kitties has the most power and/or money because Group C can use this to leverage more money.
The kitty cats in Group A and Group B don't realize this. They don't realize Group C continually feeds them a curated feed of content which invokes anger and rage. This content keeps them engaged. This content makes them more addicted to the "free platform" Group C has provided.
Group C exploits Group A and Group B. Group C is very happy. Group A and Group B are stuck in a perpetual hate machine.
Group C is not nice kitty cats.

I remember when Discord first came out. It had a bunch of money, or something, from something or someone. Nobody knew how Discord would actually make money once their piggy bank went dry.
Eventually it was said they'd sell digital stickers and customized UIs.
I thought to myself, "That's the stupidest fuckin' thing I've ever heard of. Who in their right mind would pay to have dumb ass stickers and graphics on their profile ... in a chat software client? This entire company is going to go bankrupt in 6 months"
Anyway, I guess I'm the dumb ass because people are throwing money at them. I never imagined people would pay for the most basic customization features.

EU Chat Control Fails Again: Blocking Minority Secured as Germany and Luxembourg Join Opposition
The EU's controversial Chat Control proposal has failed for the third time after Germany and Luxembourg joined a blocking minority of nine member states opposing the Danish presidency's push for mandatory message scanning.
Despite Denmark securing support from 14 countries, the opposition coalition now represents more than 35% of the EU population, effectively killing the October vote.
