Reviews & comments
Flicks, Steve Newall
flicksBesides eroding democracy, selling personal data, or both at the same time, social media has been fantastically successful at capturing the worst impulses of humanity, seen most notably in the 21st-century scourge of online “influencers”. Of course, social media is also great at covering events of significance in real time, ranging in scope from natural disasters to the meme of the moment. Historians of the future are bound to note that nothing to date has quite managed to encompass all of the above like 2017’s disastrous Fyre Festival.
