Yes, that's, I guess, my question. Have we all fallen for a trap laid by those powers or is there something about digital communication that inherently encourages that pathology. Now it could be argued that digital communication has been coopted by those powers from very early on but, if it weren't the case, would we still see the tendency in our increasingly digital influenced lives, within and between groups, to try to out radicalise each other's stances and then have the chorus of rabble cheer it on?
