The physical world still exists and eventually ideas formed in the mass hallucination chamber of social media will collide with it, even for the people in the grips of the hallucinations. And when that happens a lot of people will die.
This is also what happens to pregnant women and their babies when they fall for snake-oil treatments for preeclampsia.
