The energy we are seeing in young people as they take their well-being into their own hands is formidable.
Using the power of social media to influence and effect change is their natural and effective tool.
That their rights are legitimate is unarguable.
They stand on a solid moral foundation.
Although up until now, many of their practices on social media have seemed frivolous and inconsequential, the way it is being used now is vital.
They are protecting themselves in ways which the previous generation could not provide.
They know the validity and value of their stand.
This idealistic fervor and the sincerity and morality of the demand to live in safety is challenging the way that greed has crept into the government narrative.
It is having a practical effect in combatting personal slurs against individuals through collective action.
These young people have experienced the most horrifying experiences possible to a profound emotional depth.
They have a justified cause.
And they are fighting back and taking matters into their own very capable hands.
