Someone already has to be open to change for the flood of discourse to change their beliefs. Otherwise it drives them to people that already match their beliefs, which is easy to find in replies and quotes. Social media discourse is a tool of the society of the spectacle, to distract and cleave.

Nuance takes time to explain & trust amongst those speaking, so people don’t fear shame or embarrassment when self reasoning beliefs. Social media =/= that. It means to engage each bad take earnestly, without judgement, to share experiences that can open their mind, without interlopers undermining.

It’s an uphill battle. Character limits & displaying click/share metrics actively force & encourage context flattening of takes to signal beliefs. Which then actively activates people’s fight or flight response, pushing them to rationalize their beliefs for themselves or signal to their community.
