I feel the fear of association to person-to-person humanitarian aid[1] is why we need to use community moderated, distributed, and anonymous tools[2] to monetize empathy.

We need to fund research, expression, and development without simply monetizing and recreating social contract barriers to entry as social media barriers.

To solve the pervasive language of hidden trauma[3] problems — so empathy is empowered over identity issues — we need less closed forms and more open fields. Taboo of sharing itself, is deeper than the digital divide.
