There's some validity to the message. People who don't have a strong sense of persona/purpose end up attaching themselves to any kind of internet ideology out there that appeals to their inner insecurities. It's like junk food. It makes them feel better in the short term but long term it does them more harm than good as it gives them an artificial sense of identity to attach on to. Thus eroding their own sense of self in the process. Cultivating a stronger sense of self is actually a very painstaking process, it's like chiseling a diamond and takes arduous amount of work and hours. The problem is that most people don't want to do that since junk food is easily available but in the end they remain stuck their artificial ideologies rather than deal with reality and they keep inflating their own egoes to the point it leads to the fragmentation of the self and confirmation bias and a limited experience of existence with zero positive outcome or impact.

There's a slight difference though. The pieces of information that you take to confirm your own beliefs and biases that always existed versus pieces of information that you take to build your principles and character, to be your best version that maintains your integrity long term and expands your understanding of multiple perspectives that you begin to integrate and this makes your own integrity and character stronger long term because you chose pieces that align with your core values and these don't serve your short term agenda but a long term purpose and character for a lifetime regardless of social consequences, but your inner purpose is fulfilled. Internal VS external. HIGHER or Lower (no gpt used)
