Shandon Par Posted November 12, 2022 Share Posted November 12, 2022 As a qualified historian, social media doesn’t offer anything radically new. Ancient historians can probably cite earlier examples but the rise of the printing press enabled rabble-rousing on a new scale. Pamphlets to whip up hate and/or action in the same way social media can now, or the way tabloids did. Stone carvings, taverns, forums, decrees, pamphlets, books, newspapers, tv, radio, social media. Evolutions of the same thing. Folk interact with it the same way they did these things. Angry gammons congregate online the way they’d have bought The Sun. Folk in polo necks and glasses congregate on Twitter instead of writing in to The Guardian. At the extreme end crackpots meet crackpots rather than using underground newsletters. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
