The trumpocalypse suggests that we may be able to escape the cathedral. But the very nature of the trumpocalypse suggests that if we escape the cathedral via democratic means, the result might be something even scarier than rule by the cathedral/administrative state/etc. I suspect a more likely outcome - given the centralization of social media - is that the cathedral will succeed in suppressing the upstarts. Twitter, in spite of Trump's use of it, is certainly attempting to do so. Zuckerberg seems to have briefly resisted, but now seems to have seen the light.
