While some are eschewing social media all together because of the divisive political content, this live video debate platform aims to address the echo chamber effect with people outside of their networks. Currently in beta, startup QallOut allows users to experience a different point of view with video-based debates.
Enabling people to debate and broadcast in real time, the site hosts head to head debates, community debates and residential debates featuring one-sided video content. QallOut will also be holding a tournament. Trending tags allow users to search for hot topics like Trump, healthcare and the Israel Palestine conflict. Users can participate in a live video debate in a comment section. Although debates are live, the videos are also uploaded for future viewing.
