Psy-slop

psy-slop (noun, slang) —
1. A low-IQ, watered-down psy-op narrative released to appease public curiosity about long-speculated topics while steering attention away from anything real or substantive.

2. Low-substance, high-salience narratives strategically released or amplified within the information environment to manage public attention, satisfy entrenched speculative demands, and displace scrutiny from materially significant policy actions; conceptually linked to agenda-setting, manufactured salience, and attention management, but distinguished by its deliberately simplified, mass-appeasing character
Public: release the Epstein files.
Government: best I can do is UFOs.

Public: work at all the atrocities being commited by our greatest ally in the middle east

Algorithm: But have you seen the grooming gangs and Somali daycare fraud?

You fell for the Psy-slop.
