and the hegemonic internet platorms bias their algorithms against it

Is there any sign that they’ve tried? The Right churn out volumes of viral ragebait against the Left & spread it through troll farms & bots on social media while promoting themselves with right-wing podcasters. I don’t think “the algorithm” cares about the political orientation of ragebait as long as it keeps users online.

Part of the problem is less “algorithm” and more self-sorting as people migrate to online communities they align with more & shut out dissent. Nearly everyone was on Facebook & Twitter before. Instead of migrating, we could stay put and deploy similar tactics as (or better than) the right to manipulate social media.
