We have a documentary series called Severed Conscience that addresses that allure of the virtual - it is used to trap us and many have taken advantage of that to push an agenda while we think we are fighting back online.
We are wired for the manipulation because of how our brains operate: nature provided us a wonderful means absorbing and storing information while we think. The subconscious records and it’s sorted out later by our conscience, then stored as reflexes and emotion as a short cut to conjure information should we be imperiled by a threat. That used to be the saber tooth tiger potentially lurking in the brush. Today we still possess that rapid mechanism, and messages aimed at our emotions can be implanted without us realizing.
