The thing i wants to emphasize on is there nothing extraordinary on internet,there is belief that you have is that internet is superior to books,which is complete stupidity. I am doctor ,basically mbbs grad,i could have work without internet and would be at same page but i couldn’t had worked without books. Internet was best to best supplement for me,if something is unsettling on internet i can just say its wrong and move on and would be right but the same couldn’t be said about books. The thing you talked about media literacy is that ,its kind of spectrum and on the right side its basically all the books and all in digitalized format,mind it when i say internet i m talking about how a avg joe perceives it,youtube video ,reddit post,github post ,insta comment and so on like twitter.maybe you are talking about accessibility to resources which is complete different story,and internet is more or less irrelevant here.
And the other thing is most of the info on internet,i say info not resources is baseless,people say what they feel like,see i m not one of the boombers or whatever ik internet is good thing ,helpful but only when its one of the option,wikipedia sounds good for basic knowledge ,science ,but as soon as you want to know about related to human it all bs the nazi kind are controlling it,try to learn about indian society through wikipedia and you will be fed with propaganda that even nazi wouldn’t be able to do it,how all these happens is another story i m open to discuss but not here.
Want to know how to repair your washing machine? Good look on finding a book on that, but there’s a Youtube video for your exact model right there.
Want to know the specifics for some obscure camera control protocol? Sure, right there on some random blog, or you can just download the original specification.
Aren’t all these things complimentary and doesn’t form any basis in human society?
Idk how to visualize it but for masses internet is source if misinformation and for brahmins it source to spread misinformation and propaganda,and good place to mobilize but only for oppressor .
