Does
the subject of what we care about matter? Zuckerburg says yes but has done
nothing to make that a reality to us. In fact, Zuckerburg probably makes the “issue”
worse. Since the inception of social media like facebook and myspace, the most
petty instances and events become headlines across hundreds of peoples computer
screens. Zuckerburg has no right to comment about the significance of popular
interests. Has Zuckerburg made shining a spotlight on more
important/significant events a top priority? No, his priority is to bring the
top 30% of the world to laugh at the silliest/stupidest videos that is trending
on the internet. Who cares if the most relevant interest is a dying squirrel in
front of your house if no one is willing to make a signifigant change in what
is happening in more unfortunate events? Zuckerburgs view is similar to many
powerful leaders who are not willing to send their own son to war but is
completely fine with sending their whole male population to war. Power does not
give the right to comment about the worlds problems to people especially if he
or she is not willing to help out the cause.
