Just remember that people who truly know their own mind cannot be controlled. People who depend on social media for validation are going to be easily moved by any tide of opinion. Even those who are highly intelligent but consume social media regularly are susceptible to being significantly influenced. As you are what you eat, you are also what you read. Choose carefully what you allow inside your head. Once something is inside, it WILL have influence and it WILL be very difficult to remove, even if you are consciously aware of it.
