Social media liberated information, but it also made instantaneous, global mass hysteria possible for the first time in history. If we don't find some defense against the dynamic, I think the threat is existential. Thoughts here:https://bit.ly/2AezH5n

social media (as it exists today) and human nature are fundamentally incompatible on some levels

sort of the opposite imo, social media amplifies a natural human impulse that, at scale, is extremely dangerous

It's an existential threat to a free society. It's not an existential threat in general though. China has a solution, but you aren't going to like it, nor do I. It's called The Great Firewall Of China. I hope there is a better solution than this.

Agree that social media amplifies our innate urges. And by design, makes it easy for nuance-free takes to travel the world at thought speed. I didn't see any solutions -- are you suggesting human beings should/will change or that social media needs to be changed?

What are we spreading? Twitter brings me the smartest and most successful people I know that motivate and inspire me but that's only because I chose to seek and amplify those voices. I have a social model that does. We need more than screen time and ad revenue
