I really read this as inspirational and cool once upon a time.
Part of me still does. There’s a lot of good we’ve done on social media that make my trans friends and family more safe in who they are, broadly speaking…
But there’s also a whole lotta bad as well, and it’s been increasingly less OUR internet as the tech companies just monopolize and censor and steal data.
I’m not so sure I can manage to find this time mag cover as inspirational anymore.

it was a different time. aspirational and naive.
Naive is probably the exact word for the feeling I have. Good pick
I can assure we some of us were not optimistic.
