I’ve recently spent a lot of time around climate and social justice activists, all sharing their stories of their intricate relationship with social media in an attempt to empathetically subvert the status quo. Many see it as a vital tool for expressing their values, ethics, and words of wisdom. We’ve evolved from linear methods of communication to a more holistic, many-to-many approach. Yet, amidst this shift, I often find myself wanting to retreat from the cacophony of ‘listen to me’ messages.
