“Hashtags don’t save lives. The currency of “hashtags” has cured approximately zero people to date….
Raising awareness is like tweeting about a fire in your kitchen. Social network chatter, bumper stickers etc do nothing to solve any problem. It’s the laziest form of activism. People who do it are hoping that someone — anyone — else will do something about it, instead of them…And therein lies the problem with awareness campaigns: There’s rarely a call to action. It’s all awareness, no activity” (Maddox).
