The dam is leaking and everyone is screaming:
"We need to move the ocean" or "we need to move the villages"
While we are standing there with plug that would stop the water but it just gets ignored
That's a bit what it feels like when people want to ban all social media because of it's terrible influence
Uh hello it's not all bad
@stux lots of folks just like to scream. and when you confront them about it, usually after enough pressure they will admit to as much
@stux It might be the socialist in me, but I believe social media feeds should be regulated to help curb addictive behaviors and toxicity.
@stux Doesn't your country have a story about that? Something about a little boy plugging a dam and ended up dieing or some shit.
Seems to me the root problem is the hollowing out of culture, and that's not something that you can legislate into existence.
If culture is failing then if it isn't social media it'll be something else. Culture and ideology must be stronger than the things that would tear it down, and we've got a fairly weak culture at the moment.
Effectively, if the dam is leaking, it's because we needed to build a better dam and it might be time to get to work before we all drown.
