You'd be at the whim of every social media fad. Musk and Bezos would set the agenda even more than today.

Hard disagree.

    Musk and Bezos and others all operate on getting key people on their side. With these key people, they take the reigns of power. Under a direct democracy, the key people is everyone - Musk and others can't sway everyone, and it would be much harder for them to get the critical mass needed to achieve what they do now.
