Faux moral panics tend to do the marketing for organized crime & oppressive social hierarchies.

The panic about decriminalizing marijuana taught a bunch of white kids how to rebel.

The panic about contraception & abortion taught a lot of girls to fight "biological destiny"

The panic about AIDs taught democracy about the fight for LGBTQ civil rights.

The panic about demographic change & anti-immigrant bigotry taught a lot about pluralism & real democracy
