Don't like a clickbait? Don't click!
I've seen a paylist video on ted.com about how to change our world with some simple actions.
In one of this videos there was Sally Kohn, a columnist and a political commentator for CNN, talking about the power of clicking.
She analyzes the increazing online abuses against women, people of color or gays, and she underlines that "clicking is a public act" and that we are responsible of what we click, because by clicking we shape the world around us.
She explains how the media works today, stressing that we're no more in an era where few elites controls what the audience should see, we're all the media, we have the possibility to decide what gets attention thanks to what we give attention to.
Finally, she suggests two ways of acting:
1) "Drown out the negative with the positive": if someone is being abused online, do something. Be a hero.
2) "Click responsibly": we have to start shaping the world we want with our click.

Bravo! Ma non usare le contrazioni ("we're") in un saggio formale come questo.
