This House Debates: EP3 / Elections and Social Media: A Deadly Combo?


Listen Later

The US Election has come to a close, with Biden and Harris taking the win and Trump throwing an adult-sized tantrum in a line of election lawsuits. Regardless of respective reactions, social media sites have played a large role in this election: from QAnon to Russian interference stirring up rallies, to scenes of protests by anti-maskers and the BLM movement, social media has simultaneously connected and segregated people. 

In today's episode of 'This House Debates', Heather sits down with Jeffrey (Side Proposition) and Maiya and Hannah (Side Opposition) to explore the topic: THBT social media platforms have done more harm than good in US elections. 

Please note: the debaters were assigned a side of the debate by the THW Debate Podcast Team. The views, ideas, and examples presented by the debaters do not represent nor reflect their own.
