I am starting to think we need to shutdown both Facebook, Twitter and maybe others for six months. At the end of that period, in order to be allowed back on the air, they have to demonstrate technology that does not allow positive feedback loops of hatred to develop on their platforms (as well as other metrics). If they can't demonstrate this functionality they stay off air. We truly don't need the resonant chambers of hatred they facilitate through crappy technology.

The world ran just fine before Twitter and Facebook. Some of the things we are seeing today were made possible by these platforms and were impossible before they existed. Food for thought.
