Social media and its ability to put a megaphone in the hands of the disadvantaged.

This week we covered the origin of Black Twitter and how significant its influence was on social justice. Black Twitter became a space of mobilization, a space to find information and raise awareness of social issues and how to bring that awareness to others.

Social media continues to evolve and with it so has activism for marginalized communities and the disadvanted. These communities have found their voices on Tik Tok, Instagram and Facebook and used these platforms to bring awareness to issues not covered by mainstream media. We have seen the rise of #MeToo, #WomensMarch, and #TakeaKnee to all promote some sort of action from those who will listen.

One clear example of this in 2024 has been the rise of boycotts and protests over the United States funding of Israel in their "war on Hamas." We have seen how quickly word can spread for "Days of Action," protests, and large-scale phone banks. One post online has the ability to unite thousands within minutes and days. The response to social injustice can be almost immediate.

Social media has become the central hub for spreading communication and has amplified these voices much like a megaphone. News and information have access to so many more people and provoke responses from those who share the same beliefs or want to support the cause. Social media has given these communities a gas pedal and a megaphone to help fuel change. It has been one of the best things about social media. Giving a voice to those who are often overlooked or silenced and not just any voice, a loud one.

As a conservative who believes in free speech, I'm outraged that a special snowflake who's this easily offended managed to become president. Being offended doesn't make you right. People have the right to express themselves without coddling your fragile feelings. If you don't like it, move to another country where they don't value free speech and where dissent is punished.

MLB.com: 

Multiple Giants players took a knee during the national anthem ahead of Monday’s game against the Athletics, and manager Gabe Kapler was among them.

Outfielder Jaylin Davis was one of the Giants who took a knee, and shortstop Brandon Crawford stood beside him with one hand on Davis' shoulder. First-base coach Antoan Richardson, Mike Yastrzemski and Austin Slater also knelt.

Kudos to the 4 Giants players and a couple of their coaches for kneeling during the playing of the National Anthem. I hope more players in all sports take part in doing so.

I support #TakeAKnee BECAUSE I oppose identity politics!

The thing is, identity politics isn’t just a thing with people on the left. People on the right can also push identity politics, particularly if they’re USian and make a huge fuss over other USians being “unpatriotic”.
