I was sure someone was going to say that.

Culture can change surprisingly quickly, but it certainly won't change in ways you like if you're not doing your part.

Already, young people and the ways they use online media are quite different from people my age, and I'm not that old.

I see a lot of young parents reading to their children, making sure they grow up with a love of books, very concerned about their consumption of social media.

Backlash against the shallowness and divisiveness of social media is not niche anymore.

It needs a little more pushing, a little more time, a little more being an example for yourself and others.

What's certainly not going to help is throwing your arms in the air and submitting to the all powerful social media overlords.
