Many of the problems do stem from the fact that bubbles are so easy to create. Social media has brought us the ultimate dream machine of living in your own world, where what you believe is a truth, and not only that, the algorithm will give you more of it!
If we want meaningful dialogue, we need less bubbles and better avenues for discourse. Facebook and its ilk is the worst of humanity if used beyond keeping in touch with friends.
The issue with Parler only gives more fuel to the ones in this particular bubble that they are being persecuted. A bubble they already believe in, a world they already mentally inhabit.
We must keep striving for what you address in your comment, and for platforms for meaningful discussions, with ample focus on material truths.
