Re: Random, Random 2.0
^ This is certainly not a new phenomenon - it has been the case for a long time...
It's just that certain events (like COVID-19, wars, etc.) put a spotlight on it.
And the internet helps to spread the BS much more quickly, and to more people, than at any other time in history.

Re: Random, Random 2.0
