I'm frankly horrified at just how catastrophically bubbled progs have been up to this point, hope they wake the fuck up now.

In your view, what's causing the bubble to be worse now than in the past?

The political media are evolving orders of magnitude faster than in the past. Manhattan is now a state of mind, not a place.

and specifically becoming more polarized, geared toward choir-preaching?

Same thing that's driven long-tail niche marketing for everything else, probably. Better informatics, decentralization.

any directions to look for the antidote? (if that's even a sensible question.)

Outward.

hmm
