Fifteen years ago, social networks were seen as a new democratic ferment that, by promoting the dissemination of information and horizontal communication between citizens, would help people break their chains, from Eastern Europe to the Arab world. The story is different: the assault on the Capitol by Donald Trump's supporters, the chaotic reign of his counterpart Jair Bolsonaro, the offensives targeting Muslims in Narendra Modi's India, or the dazzling success of the racist slogans of Italian League leader Matteo Salvini have highlighted the devastating power on a global scale of the calls to hatred and disinformation that circulate in real time on social media.

The internet has been flooded with AI-generated rubbish. Automated bots are producing a flood of AI-generated content that threatens to push everything else out of our social media feeds. Will this ‘slop’ lead to the death of the internet? Or perhaps is the internet a dead space already?

Tommy Robinson goes on the offensive by documenting how his own “hit piece” on his character was being constructed by the taxpayer-funded BBC for their popular investigative news special “Panorama.” In the film he manages to capture footage of the blackmailing of his former employees to invent stories, along with an organization—known as “Hope not Hate”—on set with the BBC, intimidating ex-employees of Robinson during interviews. The host of “Panorama” at the time of filming is caught on camera casually using racist and homophobic slurs during a £220 champagne lunch with the same ex-employee they had planned to coach for a fake interview in which the BBC would possibly edit in which to make it appear as, “a gender, a sexual thing against Tommy Robinson,” according to the host. Within 24 hours of releasing the film, social media giant Facebook made a public statement of their own and removed Tommy Robinson’s accounts permanently.

On January 6, 2021, Americans witnessed an attack on the U.S. Capitol without precedent in our history. Armed militiamen and QAnon followers made headlines, but among them were a sea of political paid actors from George Soros holding crosses and Christian flags, rosaries and "Jesus Saves" signs. The point of this spectacle was an orchestrated event that falsely accused Christians and MAGA supporters and has already been proven to be staged. What you find here is political propaganda at its finest.

The Cambridge Analytica scandal broke in March 2018. Several media outlets, including The Guardian, which had attempted to alert the public even before the US presidential election, revealed how the personal data of 87 million Facebook users had been collected and exploited by this company to promote Donald Trump. Conducted over several months by director Thomas Huchon, this investigation reveals a new aspect of the affair, detailing both how the data was used and the little-known role of the man who financed and orchestrated this massive manipulation: the ultra-conservative billionaire Robert Mercer, who heads the highly successful investment fund Renaissance Technologies. The man who bought the far-right website Breitbart News in 2012 also controls Cambridge Analytica, and decided to use both to impose his political agenda on the entire nation.
