Agreed, and there's a social component too. The ability to form communities around ideology and common ground is the biggest gift the Internet gave to leftist thought (and the ability to dismantle liberal thought in the open).

This was also why it was so important to capital to dismantle leftist spaces on Reddit like Chapo Trap House and imply an equivalence between it and fascism by simultaneously removing the Donald (which should have been purged long before).
