What do you personally think will happen? I think it will be an interesting experiment to watch an echo chamber that keeps enforcing it's laws and restrictions. Will more people get sucked in or will it eventually destroy itself?

More people will be sucked in initially and then they will self-devour. When every opinion is the same they slowly push to the more extreme and they will continue to alienate the mildly extreme. I suspect this will be the cycle for quite a while until it finally implodes and fades into obscurity.
