The Invasion of Idiots
Makes a lot of sense. We do want the democratization of speech and expression--that everyone is given the opportunity to share their own music, own videos, own opinions, own experiences, no matter how factually incorrect, vulgar, or patently evil. That also drowns the voices of more learned, rational, responsible, and "correct" thought leaders.
It is so easy to create content that sells and amasses views, engagement, and revenue and become so-called "influencers" and "content-creators" if you never think of consequences.
There is always a hitch to every good thing. We can only hope, pray, and work so that the balance could tip towards "whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable" as exhorted by the apostle Paul and Timothy.
