I don’t think this is the complete solution, because of the consolidation of power in the hands of the wealthy. You could have the best arguments in the world, but if YouTube promotes your opponent instead of you, that’s an uphill battle. If they get millions in funding for advertising, staff, and research, and you don’t, that’s not a fight won merely by sharpness of wit.
People talk about the marketplace of ideas as if solely the better idea will win. Stuff wins in marketplaces for dubious reasons like funding and familiarity rather than merit all the time.
That’s not to say we should just shoot all the republicans. Rather, this is a conflict on many fronts, and “they have almost all the money and thus control” is a big tactical concern. I don’t know how to fix that.
yeah I mean look at the Clinton Impeachment, the Drudge Report, that guy who shot a BLM protestor… conservative pockets are deep.
The solution is to regulate all news outfits to enforced neutrality and a clear separate of fact and opinion which can’t be reported adjacently.
