Ignore the framing of this article and pay attention to the facts

I would argue the “box” in this case is really official narratives churned by pet media; vs the voices of those on social media with views outside the “box” which more closely matches stats thehill.com/opinion/campai…
2/3 of Americans are neither traditional conservatives (25%); or progressive activists (8%)

The 2/3 are potential swing voters.
They are subject to a constant barrage of PR hype (that pumps up one faction, and attacks another) and outright Fake News.
Due to agenda driven censorship, and manipulation of search algorithms (to control what info the public sees) 👉🏼 social media platforms have become another tool to undermine an informed grass-roots public; and to stifle open, informed debate - both of which are vital in Democracy
Rooselt warned that greatest risk to Democracy was the rise of private power.

I would argue that private power: undemocratic, unelected Shadow Govt has been enabled by -political patronage, complicit media and overly powerful internet providers who manipulate the control of info
Besides profit driven and agenda pushing corporate media (in its traditional and online forms); there are armies of online sockpuppets and fake personas working for PR firms, and corporate or political or elite entities etc (versus real grass roots people) now filling th internet
What the sock puppets, internet trolls and other paid or otherwise subservient entities that are subverting the internet are geared to do, is to elevate their person or entity and attack their opposition 👉🏼to influence the actions of 2/3 of voters who are neither far Rt or far Lt
Internet providers have become willing, overly powerful tools of undemocratic Big Brother despots
👉🏼& don’t support free speech, free thinking, free debate or any challenge to officially approved narratives of those whose agendas they are pushing - hence do not support Democracy
Most Americans consider political correctness to be a problem in American society (80 percent).

Political Correctness is a Big Brother tool to control speech, which uses the guise that certain groups fund certain comments hurtful or hateful so they should be censored
Here is a link to the 160 page pdf e-report on American Tribalism

Those who read with their critical thinking caps on may see what IMO are: politically charged, left wing framed, wording of many questions.

It would be interesting if someone looked into who funded this report; and the political connections and ideology of those who wrote it - because it reads to me like another possible Democracy Alliance related org project.
