In the long term any vote based community turns into an echo chamber.

The popular opinions win.

The users with unpopular opinions get downvoted/censored and are either banned/leave.

Leaving one opinion behind.

Moderators also a play a huge part in this - which is why it's only an illusion of democracy.

I wonder if it would be possible to create truly neutral discussion platform that doesn't end up as an echo chamber.
