The tyranny of tribalism is something that I would like to bring up also.

It is worth noting that any person who disagrees even in the slightest way with their own tribe, if indeed they are part of a tribe, risks being excommunicated and cancelled for even the slightest transgression

The culture today is replete with hundreds of thousands of examples of that, but probably most notably that of JK Rowling, who was Twitter mugged for having the temerity to refer to actual biological science with regards to participation in sport, inter-alia.

Well that's sort of crap goes on, and to be fair it is parts of both sides, we are doomed for division, continuous acrimony, and possibly violence.... Even civil war.

Perhaps for the ultimate benefit of some third party #tinfoilhats

In another thread I couldn't even get agreement that it is important for the election process is seen to be above reproach, the particular entity referring to disparage me instead.... that is some toxic shyte TBH.... a face to face discussion on these matters would prove to be interesting in my opinion.

Which leads me to the question, as has been asked) mentioned above; is social media, big tech, etcetera leading us into this dystopian world which we are definitely heading full speed into?
