Greeson: Embracing social media good vibes for a change

I have lamented frequently on social media in this space.

Its rancorous reach, lack of nuance in 280 or fewer characters and disturbing “cancel culture” fed by a morality mob that knows no boundaries have transformed what started as a way to “connect” into a brutal tool to divide.

Think of the way big news is handled, be it the impeachment hearings, immigration, abortion, gun control or school choice.

For goodness sake, there was a trending Twitter discussion about an interview Hillary Clinton gave in which she said, “People don’t hate me; they hate women.”

Chew on that one for awhile. (And, uh Ms. Clinton, there are some missed steps in your conclusion there. Signed, most married conservatives in America.)
