Is Social Media Making Us More Divided?

Is Social Media Making Us More Divided?
I think social media is making us more divided as a society. When I look at my feeds, I see people in their own bubbles, rarely engaging with opposing views. A recent Pew survey showed 64% of Americans feel social media has a mostly negative effect on society. And engagement algorithms seem to promote content that triggers strong emotions like outrage. This seems to be driving us further apart. I'm curious what others think - are there ways to fix this, or is it an inevitable consequence of these platforms?

About Truth Blocks

Truth blocks are minimal argument units that represent atomic reasoning. Each block is analyzed independently for:

  • Truth Score: Factual accuracy (0-1)
  • Reasoning Types: Deductive, inductive, etc.
  • Logical Fallacies: Detected reasoning errors
  • Confidence: AI certainty in analysis

The weighted score combines truth score with reasoning quality and fallacy penalties according to our scoring criteria.
