this royal family stuff sure seems like a manufactured distraction, but from what? (lemmy.world)

My feed is filled with this stuff and all I can think of is the conspiracy seems like it should be focused more on the attention it's taking vs whatever crazy takes are floating around. Is this all to distract from the multiple wars going on? Or is there something else that should have our attention but doesnt?

It's not really any different than the usual nonsense that's always percolating through corporate media, there's nothing special or unique about it. Maybe you are being a little paranoid? The royals always get outsized media coverage, there's a whole media ecosystem built up around them for multiple generations now. This particular story hits a few key buttons that lend themselves to more coverage than your typical royal drama so it's really blown up as it drags on. I wouldn't read too much into it except that you might need to better curate your feed.
