> What social issues? I remember old conservatives railing about gansta rap and south park causing social issues back i the day. Now it's old people whining about YT and FB. They aren't cause of social issues and they aren't the solution either. No more than smartphones or flat screen TVs.

Gangsta rap and South Park are content. This thread is about platforms and how the medium can shape the message. The analogy does not hold water.

The rest of your comment is kinda off-topic and ranty, but that wasn't a great way to start it. Friendly advice.
