I've been following the debates about whether social media algorithms are making us more polarized, and I wonder if we're measuring the right things. Studies like the ones from MIT show that false news spreads six times faster than the truth, but that doesn't tell us if algorithms are the cause or just amplifying what we already do. Could it be that our own biases, not the code, are the real driver? I've seen friends share outrage posts without checking sources, and I catch myself doing it too. So, is the platform to blame, or are we just using it as a mirror?
