Dude. It's not social media that's amplifying our fears of a slippery slope. It's 70 or 80 years of free-fall DOWN that slippery slope that makes us freak. We KNOW where this shit leads, because we know HISTORY, which you apparently do not. Maybe you're great on current events or technology, but I'm a minute in and thinking you're either naïve or you think the listener is. Small increases in authority today lead to great woe tomorrow. It's the nature of power, the nature of humans with power, and the nature of humans who SEEK power. Anything they can do FOR you, today, is 10 things they can eventually do TO you, tomorrow, and will almost certainly TRY to do to you, eventually.
