Synonyms create uncertainty. Uncertainty is required to convince normal people to go along with actions and ideology contrary to their beliefs.
Existence of a internet-induced bubble does not change the prior rules and behaviors for both fascist and communist uprisings. In fact, before the internet both fascists and communists put forth their own bubble through their own newspapers and local demagogues.
The internet has lowered the cost of entry for those propaganda outlets but that is it. The same process of forming a Bund/IWW meeting remains.
You make an appeal to despair, that the current issue is unsolvable due to self-inflicted social media bubbles.
I dispute that on grounds the bubbles have always been there. Man has always been free to disregard publications, speakers and their own family members if that is their desire. Committed ideologues have always been with us.
You simply found it easier to ignore their existence beforehand. Now, with a lowered cost of access, you can see the ugliness that was always there, that organized quietly and voter the way they always voted.
