That's not social media, that's called "life".

I do not think this holds up to evidence.
If you regularly treat people you are friends with badly it is generally on you and people will choose to disengage from a relationship with you.
If you regularly behave in a destructive manner towards members of a real life group then you at some point run out of individuals in that group that will invite you to real life group gatherings.
This is exactly why sociopaths and psychopaths quickly run out of connections and have to move around a lot.

Counterpoint: the Republican Party in the US still has strong support amongst many people its policies end up hurting.

I feel obliged to post this:

This is partly why I spent so much time writing a media literacy guide to explain the incentives behind what we see in our feeds and our newspapers:
