R.I.P. Social Media, it was a nice dream while it lasted

For once we had the possibility of a global platform from which we
had the power to make those in power listen to us. What we have ended up
with is nothing more that a digital Madison Avenue and a whole lot of
digital garbage that won’t shut up.

I would like to hold out some hope that the original intention of
Social Media could make a resurgence. A hope that we can take back our
platform for change. I just don’t see it happening which is really sad. –The Inquisitr [sic]
