I think, the believe in what is essentially people flocking around certain "condensation particles" of information as those opinions and biases being actually produced by those (mis)informations is much like the belief in spontaneous creation (e.g., mice and rats created by rags in the dark.) Rather, we may assume a certain readiness for such things, in the first place, which may then be amplified in these feedback loops.
