I think the issue is that social media is the most amazing tool for propaganda ever invented.
The Russians realized it in 2016. One of the two political parties learned from that experience rather than wanted to fix it.

The Russians realized it in 2016, and the data I've seen indicates that they promoted both Trump and Sanders at the time. > One of the two political parties learned from that experience rather than wanted to fix it. Both sides spread a lot of lies and even more half truths both in social media and more traditional media. The loyalists on both sides also both seem unable to spot where their own side is spreading disinformation and propaganda.
