Can’t disagree with the bold part, but most of times media as a whole (including social media) has to go far to get acknowledgement that it promoted harmony and tolerance. Seems those other factor (in your words internal and external threats) are more powerful than media (which provide interaction among people)

States have been brainwashing people through media for a long time, but now they can’t do much in the wake of social media. Before the advent of this medium I couldn’t have thought of tweeting directly to Imran khan, Maryam Nawaz. After all abid sher Ali would have read something that I sent to him that merited a block. whole of Egyptian dissent was fought on social media, turkey has recently imposed curbs on this medium. This is creating sleepless nights in some quarters.
