Fair enough, I don't know what's on FB etc. I meant more like conspiracy subreddits, 4chan and so on.

  4 Chan and Reddit aren't the real world. Internet users put way too much stock in their societal impact. Facebook and group messaging apps are how a lot of people communicate.

    Right! But I specifically wrote dirty corners, which fits well for those sites and less for FB.

    But there's no hard boundary. 4Chan is the viral breeding ground, occasionally some particularly well-developed memetic pathogen is weaponised onto Facebook or Whatsapp where it spreads among a non-immune population.
