But we don't all use Facebook, Facebook found its niche of tech-illiterate people to abuse.

The population is a wide demographic and it would be nice if companies didn't try to exploit parts of it.

You can say a lot of words on any given topic on a niche technology board but what does that change?

What can you do to change this situation? If there is a want then there are opportunities to make a difference.

Look, I don’t expect everyone to go into politics or become some kind of chief activist but I would love for people to be more aware of their collective strength and power.

To dispel the too pervasive illusion of powerlessness and false narrative (I wonder where that came from btw) about lack of agency.

Today’s divisions (I wonder where that came from) make it harder to group up with people when everyone is so split and radical and polarised (I wonder where that came from)
