Essay Topics:
Topic 1.
The 2020 presidential election created a flurry of disagreements and accusations around the possibility of probable fraud. During this time, a large Facebook group called Stop the Steal was eventually deleted for misinformation and violent rhetoric. As a result, many Trump voters, angered at this censorship on Facebook or Twitter, migrated to Parler, a social media app that functions similar to Twitter, Wimkin, or MeWe apps that function more like Facebook.
What do you think is the ultimate result of this migration? Has this group of voters achieved the free speech they sought? What might be the long-term results of this partisan divide in communication? Write an essay exploring the ultimate effects of this free speech migration on social media. Apply a logical fallacy when presenting the counterargument.
