News is more atomized as well. YouTube, Twitter, FB, dozens of cable channels… hard to unite when we can’t find common ground on what’s actually true.

- neartheplain 5y agoYouTube, FB, TikTok, Twitter etc. do make it easier to share and unite around feelings or emotional reactions. However, these platforms don't facilitate the sort of careful, thought-out organization and planning that historically has been necessary to make lasting social change. It's the difference between liking a tweet and maybe going to a protest vs. showing up to weekly meetings, having a long-term legal or political strategy, and executing on that strategy step-by-step.
