Assuming that their win goes through, I see this going two ways.
The reason why the social media gurus have to be broken up is that, while they have backed Biden to the hilt in the election, they did so via oppressive censorship, thus demonstrating their power. No self-assured state will stand for that level of autonomous power within their own borders. By apparent coincidence, it will be a very unifying and popular move all round.
If the Republicans take the House and Senate, as they might, then it would force Biden to negotiate with the Republicans, thus forcing a slight form of reconciliation.
If Biden doesn't alienate the Far Left, and indeed attempts to uphold his campaign promises along the lines of Social Credit systems, then you will likely see a massive decay of federal control over the country. Partly due to mass civil disobedience (think draft-burning), partly due to local government seeing autonomy as their path to popularity and power (think Second Amendment shelters). People like AOC talking about making lists and holding Truth & Reconciliation Commissions doesn't help this, as no one knows who would be targeted by the purge.
- Biden holds with his campaign promises, he gets obstructed every step of the way by the legislature, he's miraculously even less effective than Obama. 4 more years wasted pointlessly.
- Biden backstabs the Leftists and the Social Media gurus in order to promote centrism in the cause of establishment cronyism.
