To be completely serious: Many moons ago at university, I wrote an essay analysing the internet in terms of the Communist Manifesto. Potentially, the internet is the greatest equaliser of all time -- but it is important to note that in order to be "equal" in cyberspace, people need to be "equally" capable of critical thinking, checking sources and using their own brains to decide whether something should be believed or whether it's just plain meme-based bollocks.
And yeah - I agree (notice how I didn't say educate others).
