I mean it is a total lack of value, because it once again means that people listen to some rando on where our society should move towards rather than scientists. Facebook is bad for society. Don’t listen to founders, don’t listen to millionaires, don’t listen to billionaires. Listen to scientists.
If people actually listen to this dude and not to scientists, that’s an even bigger problem, because once again people are incapable of understanding value at a basic level.
Entry level would be listening to scientists on news sites… not continuing to listen to billionaires on news sites. Their behavior has not changed one iota if they continue to listen to billionaires on the news.
Here’s the thing. Famous people have been going on and saying things like “Facebook is bad” for over a decade now. Those people you’re talking about already had the chance to get past entry level.
The “entry point” isn’t “listen to billionaires”. It’s “stop listening to billionaires”. These are two fundamentally opposite ideas so there’s no chance for the first to be an entry point to the second.
The general public won’t click on an article about what scientists say, but more likely will click on an article about the founder of Facebook. That’s just how it is. So if you want people to wake up to a fact, it’s helpful to meet them where they are.
Or you can just tell them what they should value as a source of information, that usually works really well with humans.
