The control of media and of communication by the wealthy is mainly a threat to society.
It’s not like eating junk food where you’re only harming yourself.
We’re all threatened by people being ignorant and propagandized.
Now, what you can do, there are many things. Talk to your neighbors, involve yourself in your community, get people to come on the Fediverse, demonstrate, etc.
I do all of that already. If my friends and family take my advice it is their choice. I cannot nor would I want to force them into it. You can’t save people from themselves, especially if they’re unwilling. You can only save yourself.
But everyone else does and they will be voting in the next election dragging you down with them.
I can’t control other people, only myself. If they want to sleepwalk into lies and fake propaganda there is nothing I can do.
Your point?
