Algoganda

Algoganda:
A modern form of propaganda delivered by algorithms on social media, streaming platforms, or other digital feeds. Instead of being overt, it subtly pushes opinions, political views, ads, or trends directly to your feed, shaping what you think, buy, or believe—often without you realizing it. Basically, propaganda served algorithm-style.

Example:
“I don’t even know why I bought three new gadgets last week… it’s all just algoganda at work.”

Lee: Bruv, every time I go on the internet, I’m getting pushed onto all these political stuff. And then somehow, I end up spending a fortune buying random stuff. I don't need LOL.

Frank: Yeah… Bruv, that’s the That’s the algoganda at work, in its finest.

Lee: Init bruv LOL.

Frank: LOL.

Autoganda

A concept used in the Evan Dara novel "The Easy Chain" to describe the propaganda we feed ourselves to define or praise or criticize ourselves about what our innermost essence is really like.

The autoganda of the so-called "true self" is responsible for fear and delusion.

algorandomly

That feeling that something came up in your social media accounts randomly, but in reality you know it was not randomly, and likely the result of an algorithm pushing that content to you because it is well aware of everything you browse when you are online. Many people think these "coincidences" are the result of devices "listening" to conversations, without realizing that their online behaviours are equally telling of their preferences.

Person 1: I think my phone is listening to my conversations. I've been looking to buy a house and now my social media feeds are filled with home inspection services.
Person 2: This is no coincidence. It's just algorandomly generated content.
