I beg to differ, This is NOT a microcosm of the real world, The Freepersphere is a world largely unto itself. the only thing even remotely close would be an editorial room at a large newpaper, IF there was enough diversity of opinion for them to argue.
Most of the real world go about their lives without spending their time arguing more and more heatedly about less and less.

FR is a microcosm specifically of what is happening in GOP circles.
You need to remember that FR has tremendous reach into that milieu.
I can't tell you how many times I have seen events follow the debate on FR very speedily. Haven't you noticed?
And we are almost always ahead of the curve.
