Ironic to post here but correct. Internet is a cesspool.
I mean, I think GameFAQs doesn't have the same problem as most social media, though?
A big part of the problem is social media algorithms. GameFAQs doesn't have complicated algorithms that feed people down routes of extremism. People can become extremists by watching youtube or using twitter, and especially by using Facebook (the statistics on that I've seen on the correlation between facebook use and extremism are nutty), but I've never heard of someone radicalized by GameFAQs.
If anything I think this topic tends to pull people towards the center more than anything else.
