No, not in the US at least, but society runs on vibes these days





Fair enough, I'll withdraw the "mass": EU 6.5%, USA 4.5%. That's still enough to have all sorts of policies to reduce that amount, apparently...

Arguably in the recent election the Democrats learned that increasing inflation to reduce unemployment was a bad political tradeoff.

Vibes being misinformation and populist propaganda campaigns. Emotionally manipulating people is highly effective and, by far, the easiest it's ever been with technology.
