Yes. Misguided ignorant people are surrounded by misguided ignorant people. If they are supplied bad info on youtube or on a social network, there is no corrective mechanism. It's not complicated to understand. You don't have to believe me the consequences will just keep piling up. |

Let's say I don't dispute your first claim (though that also has no basis). How many mass atrocities or deaths have historically been tied to info on youtube or social networks? (please provide citations) - I'm willing to bet BTC that US drone strikes have killed significantly more (but it's okay we have a corrective mechanism!). Further what about the all the mass atrocities prior to social media, what was the corrective action there?
Would you have someone watch and advice these people? The People's Party? The Ministry of Truth? Google Department of Facts? The US Government? The very same government that e.g. tacitly supported genocide in Indonesia? [0]
Actually a great amount (if not the majority) of crimes against humanity have been carried out precisely by organizations and people with the kind of corrective ideology you are on here evangelizing.
I'm really quite surprised to be having this discussion honestly, I don't know if it's some mental culture of the Silicon Valley bubble or complete lack of historical knowledge or what...
