    Maybe it’s intentional. I see this quite often as a way to drive engagement. If you post misinformation, a lot of people will rush to correct you. If you post something true and easily agreeable, people might just hit the “Like” button (or do nothing at all) and move on.

      Lies drive engagement. So true. It’s also exactly what’s gotten us into this social media clusterfuck.
