Describe how Tom Paine went “viral.” What statistics and evidence measure this virality?
Paine did multiple things on multiple occasions making him go “viral” from having work published which led to the establishment of the first antislavery society in America to his piece Common Sense spreading to multiple states in days being read by significant people.
What measures his virality is the impact of his work and the persuasion it had on people immediately, having “revealed the extent of latent support for independence and won new converts to the cause”. “It was unquestionably the most popular and influential pamphlet of the American Revolution”.
I admire that his work created a new perspective. “the pen and the press had merit equal to that of the sword.”
