4th wave feminism was a social media construct. It blew up vernght and highly influenced the population regarding social justice

That cannot be denied.


I don't deny that social media has aided in societal shifts.

Not wholly. And the dissenters are still there. There voice is still everywhere.

Of course you're not gonna outwardly express your respect for her. You're just gonna go in every rapinoe thread
and criticize anyone that doesn't like her.

Enough to control opinion

When your platforms are reaching hundreds of millions, the platform itself becomes the influencer if it controls speech.

it means quite a bit statistically versus Podunk LA......theres a great big world out there that doesn't correlate with small town USA.


You mean seeing things like racism and hatred towards others?

Absolutely, but to trivialize reality because of some embellishment is equally wrong....if not worse.


So I'm being worse than CNN because I dont believe and say people are being oppressed in the US.

You sound like a tabloid

But if you dissent you're labeled a bigot. Instead of the left arguing their points or attempting to sway people to their side by proving they're right, they persuade people to come to their side by attempting to completely destroy any dissenters by labeling them bigots. The social media companies are absolutely complicit and supportive of this.

You mean that board that you apparently read all the time but never post on and instead come to the OT to make fun of people who do happen to have political opinions that they want to discuss?

Twitter and Facebook are both guilty of allowing both sides to use their platforms to spread their BS. You're being intellectually dishonest if you only see one side of it.

I occasionally read and post.

I like how you didn't try to argue that it's not an echo chamber that shouts down dissenting opinions.

Everywhere on the internet is an echo chamber when it comes to politics. But I challenge you to find a more balanced political forum on the internet.
