(2021-11-05) D F Is Social Media Culture An Oral Culture

Default Friend: Is social media culture an 'oral culture'? Do we only think we live in a “written culture” because we’re writing, but actually live in an “oral culture”? Though we technically read and write every day thanks to texting and social media, are we actually literate in a real sense?

I’ve also been cautiously thinking about the idea of ‘monopolies of knowledge,’ especially with respect to the importance of Twitter and Signal group chats.
