I've been saying this for a long time.
The alternate universe is now a separate, fully formed, fully functioning, self-sustaining, closed circuit informational and ideological ecosystem.
Before long, the rest of us might very well need a translator to communicate with them. And the country is now Balkanizing as a predictable result.
"Exceptional" no more.
And so I ask, who's fault is this? Is it those who decided to not have different views when it had the whole system? Or rather those who created a new system when they could not get their views out on the system that was in place?
In my opinion, tis better to allow all views and let people discard what they want to, then try and suppress views that are in YOUR opinion, radical, or against what you wish.
It is obvious you can not change minds if all you have is an echo chamber. I suggest, that the more you hear, the better informed you are. Doesn't mean you are going to be persuaded, just means you get both ends of the spectrum, and everything else in-between.
Tech companies have done this, no matter which side of the aisle you reside on. I would rather listen to both sides on one platform, then draw my own conclusions from 2, 3, or 4 platforms. It appears that is NOT going to happen. Who is to blame? I will let all of you draw your own conclusions, but truth be told, the GOP NEVER threw a Socialist under the bus and had them/tried to have them, deplatformed!
What are they afraid of? Who knows, but it appears they are scared to death.
