Another of his strengths, is the ability to cite information, from other authors making his claims more true and believable. In the end, he is a very persuasive writer, but not believable enough.

Another thing he does not consider is the never ending list of factors that could have contributed to the decline of activism. Gladwell simply blames social media for making activism less in quantity
