Until/Unless digital opinion mechanics (likes, etc) are given the weight of real world consequences, they will continue to be empty gestures. The only way to move past this era of "like this post to help stop a dictator" is to implement Internet voting or something similar.
I'm not necessarily advocating for internet voting, just saying until some legitimate public outcome is driven by internet-enabled decision-making, all current social media/internet group-decisions will be empty of meaning.
