We had flame wars before social media, but they tended to go out as quickly as they flared up. Then we got the inflammable trifecta: true believers setting their hearts and minds alight, 4chan trolls fanning the flames and Twitter clout-mongers collecting the spoils.

I don't believe in the culture wars - it's a RW conspiracy. What they call "culture wars" we on the left call "civil rights" and a just and fair society. So I reject the idea in the first place.
