Every day I watch the substitution of our societies by social media platforms. Lots of wailing about why ‘we’ aren’t doing important things. This is ‘we’, now. What’s trending. Not an analogy. All that has collective attention and action is the evanescent daily trends 1/3 https://t.co/x34BkEFEdG

If you’re pleading for important things to happen, just note that Superman ranks above them. Nothing in today’s Top 5 comes within light years of important public problems. That’s the same every day. 2/3 https://t.co/WD4A5xpXYg

The medium is the message. We HAVE to stop thinking we’re talking *about* society, on these platforms. The platforms ARE society, now. They’re not content receptacles. They’re our social spaces. /end
