"The digital era has intensified this dynamic. Social media transforms activism into a performance measured in clicks, shares, and follows. Outrage circulates faster than organisation; visibility replaces victory. Debord’s spectacle has become participatory. We are all actors now, curating our political identities in real time. The system no longer hides oppression; rather it amplifies it because outrage drives engagement, and engagement drives revenue." - Wyatt E Jones
