I know that people don’t understand how the absence of info communication medium, can result in severe societal problems.

Yesterday, that medium might had been the coffee shops and libraries, today it’s online social media.

Examples: Nepal, Arab Spring, Kenya, … Etc.

      Yah, propaganda spoon fed through social media is the cause. Billionaires manufacturing consent. This post blows and smells like one of the troll factories that crank this smut out.

      I’m not sure what they even meant. Possibly that social media replaced real communication and made inroads into our social lives, all of which have now been taken over by all the bullshit? Because yeah that sounds right
