In my opinion, social media in Farragut has become very radicalized, and it thrives on verbal brutality. Soapbox orders feed off the dopamine rush that they get as they are sucked into a vicious cycle, where postings become more and more extreme while they delude themselves into believing they are making a difference with their incendiary opinions. They sit in front of their keyboard, where they launch political firebombs with the intent to take down the elected officials who do not agree with their particular position.
