I'd like to suggest searching for alternatives to 'the masses.' I associate this word with 'manifesto' and 'revolution' and other words loaded with negative connotations for many. I know it is unintended, but is also sounds slightly condescending and patronizing, a kind of 'We know best' vibe.
Sent with much respect, and agreement with core ideas . . .
We each decide what meaning we want to give words.
For example, I wrote a book called manifesto of the free humans focused on solutions. Does that make it a bad book because you believe it has negative connotations?
I agree whole heartedly...
