1 someone makes a place for things that are not left leaning. The forum begins at spot that covers 3, with 5 being alt right and -5 being alt left. l call this value prime
2 place begins to get popular
3 as more users enter, the forum gets pulled toward the views of These new users. Prime is broadened to a spectrum, that goes from a little bit right of Prime to closer to the center. Prime now covers 0-4, because the views of new members skewthe value.
4 once the left end for prime hits -1, two things happen. 1 the other right end leaves because the forum is too left, or 2 the new left users of the forum ban the right for being extreme currently, even if they were in the center before, because the new users outnumber the old ones.
5 Prime is unrecognizable, because the left wing are so concerned with being safe that they just absorb the server. Meanwhile, the original users make their own forum, that temporarily stays normal. That is, until Prime's moderate users migrate to the new one, and the cycle begins again.
It is the reason why states that were reliably red become blueshifted by the one blue state they border.
Libtards turn the blue states into uliviable hellholes, and take their views with them once they leave to redder pastures.
I see this pattern in many different things.
