This is definitely a big risk to the country. The way things are going I am having trouble seeing an amicable resolution between the two sides of American politics.
I see this as a problem that is not caused by Facebook or a few other big players. And this problem would be the same with or without Trump. It is just too comfortable and easy to get into the echo chamber. It is almost like people enjoy being angry, because it makes them feel smarter. (I'll be honest, I looked at myself and that is what I saw.)
We need a popular news/information source that both sides can believe in. Maybe there could be some sort of peer review by respected liberals and conservatives?
