institute shows that between 20172018, the number of countries where organized social media manipulation occurs increased from 28 to 48. the biggest drivers of organized online manipulation around the world. political parties, the realization many of them have had, is that instead of trying to, since the social media platforms, it's much more effective to simply flood them with bots. junk news and disinformation. samantha bradshaw was one of the researchers who worked on the report. advertisers have used these platforms to reach new audiences and new market . ah, but now we're seeing political parties learned that these platforms can also be used to sway public opinion. and so instead of selling us these goods they're, they're selling us world leaders or political ideologies by using the advertising infrastructure and the algorithms to slowly starting, nudging perspectives and nudging opinions of our politics. we're seeing the shift away from purely automated accounts to more human operators. we're finding actual real people for hire to work on political campaigns, to work with more repressive governments to target people on line with this kind of a speech to ultimately suppress their participation

institutional change. okay, sure. we have some audience questions. yes. i from toronto, canada, and as you've said, racism is politically advantageous in a white supremacist world. it wins elections. it's one of the engines that keeps capitalism running. it justify subjugation of racialized people to leverage labor and poverty. so why are we still trying to argue with racists about the scientific basis of our shared humanity when it would serve them to recognize it? here? well, that's a great question, but i think that the answer from my point of view is, and part of the motivation for writing this book is that the, i found that the, the science in this book is not new and not controversial. so the idea that biological essential ism in that and a biological basis for race has been utterly taken down by science, by genetics. that is a non controversial thing to say within the lab within academia. but what i found is the science communicator and talking to public's is that, that, that information hasn't filtered down into, into public consciousness. and that's on me, right? you know, i'm, i, that's my job is to do that. and, and then secondly, on top of that, that's in the last few years with t

institutions in every nation and culture with the ultimate goal of ending tyranny in our world. >> but a funny thing happened in 2016. a minority of voters in the undemocratic electoral college elected a political and social arsonist named donald trump as president. what happened next was entirely predictable. according to the advocacy nonprofit freedom house, the u.s. score in freedom in the world fell by 11 points on a 100-point scale in the decade from 2010 to 2020. with an accelerated deterioration of six points during the trump presidency. to be clear, the decline had already begun by the time trump became the president. fueled by legislative dysfunction, partisan gerrymandering, the excessive influence of special interest in politics, ongoing racial discrimination, and the spread of polarization and disinformation in the media environment. but trump absolutely made it worse. then on january 6th, 2021, after a majority of voters declined to re-elect him a president, this happened.
