It's not fake. You can look at my other screenshots. It's just not happening to you.
This is why targeted media and advertisement is a bad idea.
It makes it incredibly easy to test people and put them into information silos where what you see is not what I see.
Yeah sucks back in the day on nationalized television one add would run cross country, but at least then you knew it was going to be scrutinized by a wide swath of individuals. Or maybe the segregation of information was not as widely considered then.
