    This is absolutely the result of the algorithms

    Reddit creates advertising demographics by allowing people to self-organize around topics and brands.

    Twitter creates advertising demographics by empowering influencers to create spheres of influence.

    TikTok creates advertising demographics by allowing people to construct new identities and reinforcing the clusters that appear, almost like a match making system. The algorithm is like Twitter, but less hierarchical. Influencers and Influencees become one.
