Sure — but “morally” is doing a lot of lifting here.
You’re framing media as a kind of moral shepherd, and the audience as sheep needing to be steered. That’s a top-down, almost sermon-like view of what art or communication is for. But media isn’t a one-way channel for delivering moral upgrades; it’s a space of negotiation, ambiguity, and mutual curiosity. In a decentralized landscape, authority isn’t supposed to be granted by default. There’s no pulpit, no captive audience. Refusing to meet the world halfway in this context risks not steering anyone anywhere — it just makes you inaudible.
And again, morally is doing a lot of lifting. In decentralized media, “morally better” is not a fixed north star — it’s a contested terrain. If you’re not engaging in that messiness, in the polyphony of perspectives, you’re not guiding; you’re just broadcasting into the void and calling it a mission. 2 replies
