Something I learned in Communication 101: Communication is two-way, sending and receiving. You can say whatever you want, but if your actions send a different message, it won't be received by your intended audience.
Comm 101 taught me like 3 useful things, and this was one of them. Comm Revolutions taught me how social media can empower the average person rather than the establishment. YouTube is essentially undoing that now by prioritizing the people who are already in the establishment.
