Metcalfe's Law states the value of a network is proportional to the square its users. It's not really an empirical description of our social universe so much as a decent heuristic. Generally speaking, the more users there are, the more they can do together. And this "more" grows faster than linear.
The weird problem of "toxicity is the spice of media" and "open ideas don't fear scrutiny" applies here. If Trumpian memetics are made such that it IS a "psychological cleanser" akin to green plastic-eating bacteria, containment (the concept of it started on 4chan to stop toxic politics BTW) and sanitation (personal level forced disengagement) is the only defense... one cannot wish censorship and free thought to go together. The only alternative is counter-memetics, or compatible weaker variants of Trumpism (sounds like state actor tactics tho).
