I do agree, and we have seen this in the past with things like the punk movement, which was a purely creative output from the working class in response to poor social conditions. Hopefully there is a similar movement against similar modern technological conditions at some point.

There are a couple of differences here though. For example everybody has the same tiktok. The upper classes and lower classes are for the first time being subjected to the same issues simultaneously.

Also the modern medium of tiktok has proven so addictive that people are not showing any signs of rising up against it, and so it is taking legislation to protect people from themselves.

These are all new factors which will change the swing somewhat, Im with you in hoping that it all works out.




The upper classes have a lot more resorces and their children will be affected at a lower rate.
