Also, we've had excellent evidence that many powerful people, including the president of a world superpower, has done literally that exact same thing except with non-consenting children, and nothing happened.
baring Cambridge Analytica tipping an election or tiktok putting every nazi with a podcast in young boy's faces. yeah callouts or black square profile pictures kind of have a more sedative effect.
Yeah I think my biggest nitpick with that movie is the way it portrays the public as immediately changing their beliefs based on new information. IRL, absolutely nothing would have happened to Lex Luthor.

There's evidence that the rise of social media has had a negative effect on real-world involvement in social movements.

Superman's parents did what? Superhero movies sure have changed since I stopped watching them.
