I agree with both sides of the argument. You are both right for different reasons. We definitely need alternative platforms, otherwise you will have no voice. However, there will also be a 'Brave New World' effect in action, where people will be separated into different 'online classes'. The cool hip online human species, and then the sub-human online species in the dark corners of the web who talk about weird shit. The labels will come thick and fast, from the mainstream who will eventually dominate YouTube and other social media giants, as a mainstream news service.

Has anyone tried to quantify the words and actions of news platforms to determine precisely which of these corporations are the worst offenders and by how much?
There has to be organized data that will help us see hidden influences and motivations. If there isn't we have to start collecting it.
We need a lense of truth and perspective to help us filter the Internet. Such a lense would allow us to see clearly how organizations and authors have been influenced. We would know exactly which content was biased and in what way.
What if we could use their own tricks against them? Data and content are powerful. We need to get it and use it.
