no. and this isn't to say that everyone's opinions aren't valid and that speaking out would help many people. but there would be so much unnecessary clutter that would distract from the more important issues.
some people may adamantly believe the moon landing was a hoax. some might believe it's a ploy by the russians. some might believe it was really caused by aliens simulating humans. while everyone has a right to their own opinions, this doesn't mean all should be given equal weight.
while it's true that speaking out has often led to social reform or a call to change - look at the women's suffrage movement, civil rights, or recently, greta thunberg's speech on climate change at the united nations conference - too many people talking at once would create immense pressure for everyone. people have a limited attention span and there's only so much information that can be processed. my opinion is that the majority of people will be in their right mind and their opinion will come through; for any valid opinion that might be small, it will eventually catch on until more people believe in it that it is worth noting.
