Come on, you guys are way more powerful and influential than you were 20 years ago (which is exciting!) What’s that Spiderman line? With great power, comes great responsibility? Words matter. They travel farther & faster than they did a decade ago. We should exercise care.
Maybe we've become more influential, but most of the problem here is another change that has happened simultaneously: the acceleration in the rate of new taboos.

If you think about it as a taboo you feel restricted. If you think of it as extending courtesy & consideration to groups you hadn't been thinking about before you feel generous. You determine how you feel about societal change.

Are you sure they are new taboos or simply the disenfranchised finally gaining a voice? At least personally I haven't seen anything new in quite a long time but louder voices for sure.

It is taboo to discuss the taboo-ness of what has been taboo-ed by the earlier cohort of "to taboo or not to taboo" tweeters. This blockchain of taboos is progressively leaving future generations with taboo mountains, who will need digital tools to manage their taboo compliance.

I am putting together a YC application for “Tboo” a SAAS that uses an AI to check your tweets in real time for taboos and checks them against a blockchain and then reports said infractions and via a new social score via a Magic Leap AR app. HR people will go crazy for it. :-)
