media and people

notifications of urgency.. how to investigate and validate sources.

access

who has access to the media is expanding, but still controlled. how can the most vulnerable maintain a social media presence to inform the public of the horrible conditions that are enforced by the bourgeoisie. wireless internet is lacking in much of the world. quick ping shows 1 in 3 have never even used the internet.

limitations

news of important events has chain of trust issues that can be mitigated by some methods, but forces will always exist that seek to exploit the weaker links in that chain of trust. one instance might be the social engineering aspect of this, where information can be compromised using techniques informed by legitimate research. an example in recent times is the unintuitive and combative ux for interacting with cookies after the gdpr was enforced on websites

again pointing to capitalism and oppressive systems for enabling and rewarding these kinds of practices

people over profits

obviously, but how do we rip the power out of their hands.

multifaceted

think something drastic and major needs to happen. I'm talking about something like redistributing excess houses/land to historically oppressed minorities, specifically black americans. there should also be some sort of massive redistribution of federal land and commercial land back to indigenous tribal govts (unsure of terms of specifics).

also missing somethings here but words escape muis right now. it will come back later.
