Social media influencers from countries such as Nigeria, Senegal, and Vietnam have discovered a very lucrative business model.

It involves unleashing the most repulsive conspiracy theories upon Western nations.

They make a fortune doing so.

These theories spark intense debate and a flurry of comments, something that social media giants like Facebook, Instagram, and X absolutely love. Consequently, these accounts are given free rein to spew their filth. The cash registers keep ringing for Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg.

Meanwhile, this sows hatred within our society. Older people, in particular, prove highly susceptible to the fear and hatred being hurled at us from distant lands.

The social media platforms themselves do nothing to stop this, nor do they provide users with any real opportunity to filter out these harmful channels. After all, doing so would only hurt their bottom line.
