I sincerely don't understand this line of reasoning. Are the negative consequences of overmediatization and people having too much empathy in the moment really what we should focus on? If so what are those consequences exactly? It feels like a counterproductive leveling down argument. Instead of dumbing down every event to its worldly relativistic place, we could seize the opportunities to rise, try to question and inform ourselves and let people who want to rearrange their priorities do so. There is no world roadmap with a ubiquitous world product owner incentivized to handle its rational prioritization.
