    You mean the dude who’s gunning for the Democratic presidential nomination and the other guy who’s busy creating a Twitter alternative? They pretty much can affect public opinions, so people should at least be aware of the potential implications.

      Agreed. It’s less about how much I care about his opinion, and more so regarding his influence.

      Bystander effect / not caring about things outside our immediate views or perceived sphere of influence can be a dangerous path to trod.

      But, you know, uh, that’s just like my opinion, man.
