That's because USA created social media systems first, ASCII before Unicode, etc. The rest of the world didn't get social media until after the USA. We Lost Control of educating social media computer users in September 1993, and it laid the foundation for Russia to win the Hybrid War online / on Reddit / Lemmy / Facebook / YouTube / Twitter / etc.
Americans will believe anything off a computer screen / Apple iPhone / Apple iPad / Lemmy system. Extreme problem we have with media ecology literacy. I teach it over on !MediaEcology@lemm.ee
Donald Trump's November 2012 plan to mind-fuck the entire world with the Kremlin / Putin / Russia and Cambridge Analytica using Reddit, Twitter, news comment sections of computer screens was a master-stroke (100 years leap ahead of Edward Bernays methods, adding in Surkov methods too), along with Elon Musk purchasing Twitter to win all "hearts and minds" in 2022, and their self-destruction of the USA (and probably the entire world) is likely unstoppable.

It has nothing to do with social media, and it predates it by decades, as demonstrated by this famous Genesis song.
Trivialize all of Neil Postman's work on education and media ecology, trivialize all of Marshall McLuhan and James Joyce's work. It has everything to how you just used social media of Lemmy to give the simplistic Donald Trump kind of possible dismissal. And Ronald Reagan was in power in 1985 and Neil Postman explained all that.
World Religions are a media issue, there is no supernatural, it's all fiction storytelling, like Fox News is fiction storytelling and Lemmy bullshit is fiction storytelling.
I suggest you study some of the information over in !MassBrainDamage@lemm.ee on group behaviors, Mass Psychosis, etc.
