  "summary": "Reality fragmentation describes the breakdown of shared epistemological foundations where populations hold incompatible beliefs about basic facts (e.g., 73% Republicans vs 23% Democrats believe 2020 election was stolen). The page documents evidence of accelerating fragmentation through media segregation and AI-generated content, but provides minimal actionable guidance for interventions.",
