Modern internet is genuinely such a cesspool. Everything is about politics or something else (specially on sites like Twitter where not only does Elon push garbage right-wing points of view to your page, but also you get paid for the most amount of engagement on your post), every big company wants to make their sites look and be worse to use and slowly drain any amount of personality that they previously had, as well as being able to suck the souls out of people as well so they become mindless consumers.
Though to be fair, while modern internet being a big pile of garbage can be mostly blamed on these billionaire companies, it's also socially the internet has just gotten worse. Just as an example, for every 2 people there are that become famous that genuinely deserve to be, there's about 50 other famous douchebags who do stupid shit for content and all you get is stuff like "Woww, that was crazy dude, what a good clip" and they get pushed more and more to young audiences who then grow up to repeat this exact same type of behavior for clicks again. People also are unable to appreciate actual art these days, and it's not just AI. In general, there has been a steady decline towards the appreciation of more consumable, mediocre or just straight up bad art than actually unique, good art. I will admit, I was mostly talking about anime when I said that, but I'm sure you can find this type of situation in other mediums too. The internet has just really become incredibly more hostile to the user, and who knows when that can be reversed?
