I don’t think it is possible to just “quit” using social media. The problem is that quitting feels to most people like giving you your weapons when your enemy still has them. Maybe if everyone “disarmed” at the same time it would work but how could you coordinate that? No one wants to sit out social media only to let their opponents continue to use it as an effective way to spread THEIR message.
This sounds a bit like an addiction? We need to find ways to exercise influence in the real world, offline. The connections formed through volunteering or public service are the better weapons.
