It's so interesting. We all now that in X months from now the propaganda campaigns will switch to the new hot topic and we'll never hear about data centers or their "water usage" ever again. In X months from now everyone will deny that it was a thing or that anyone cared about it. People will forget that it was ever even a discussion. Everyone will just be switched over onto whatever the latest and greatest propaganda campaign is, at the drop of a hat, with zero reflection. Wonder if there's a way to graph it, something like google trends, but over social media, to chart whether there's a specific day/week that all discussion about it just ends.
