00:00Today's demigods and celebrities are not people with knowledge. Today's celebrities are
00:06loudmouths, those who bark on everything under the sun. The explosive emergence of social media,
00:14especially over the last five, six years, may have had its immediate and material benefits.
00:21But the challenges it has brought in terms of giving a loud and undeserved voice to worthless
00:30people is a huge damage we have suffered. And somehow the nature of life is such that the ones
00:37who know very little are the ones most eager to express themselves. Wisdom prefers quietness
00:45and silence many a times. Ignorance is so insecure it wants to shout from the rooftop.
00:52It indeed is a dangerous situation.
