What are you using this word to mean? At a guess it sounds like, “ideas will float to the surface” but also it does not always mean that, as used in “has percolated”. Percolate relates to filtering of a substance like coffee, to get the good bits from the bad. Can you repeat the above without using this word?
Are we looking to separate and elevate good ideas from the general noise on the interwebs, or are we looking to ensure ideas filter through the diaspora to every little sub group that exists? Or are we looking to filter something else? I am not sure which you are trying to describe.
If you want to describe an earlier post that is well know, and well spread, it should be enough to describe the name of the concept, i.e. crony beliefs. If you want to reference a less well known concept; it should be enough to name the author and link to their post, like if I wanted to refer to the list of common human goals and talk about things that relate to it.
I don’t see the gravity of the problem you are trying to describe with your concerns.
