Social media

Theres not really anything social about social media, if anything, social media encourages people to be distant from each other and in their own little world/bubble. There are people nowadays who won't do anything in life if theres not a picture or video to post and comment about. They live to be seen on social media, YouTube, or reality TV, where everything is staged. What happened to enjoying what you were doing so much at the time that you didnt think to film it, you already missed your opportunity to film it and it didnt matter, you got to be human for a few minutes, you were as close to who you really were as you get, no image. That must have ended in the 90s with VCR's for some people.
Social media provides the illusion of being part of a large network, meanwhile some people are getting rich via this platform. There was a time before social media where people actually knew each other in real life and had actual life experience with the other person, rather than the virtual image of someone on a computer screen.

Social Media

"Social media is a construct using the internet to interconnect people in groups, forums, and individually so they can interact without being anywhere near each other."

-John C. Dvorak, N.A. Episode 1066

"Social media is a place where people go to get sick"

-Adam Curry, N.A. Episode 1066

Social Media

1. A place where people should be accepted the way they are instead of being told they aren't good enough indirectly by pages that favor nice butts and thin waists.

2. Apps that are designed to bring people together and bond, but do the exact opposite.
I was scrolling thru social media yesterday, this page convinced me to pop some pills and starve myself so i can be featured on their page.

Social media

Something that’s amazing! Life changing, great, so many good things come from this. But wait..no it’s not. It’s pressure, anxiety. I’m sorry to bring the dark side down on things but I can’t help it. It’s bullying, pain, feeling worthless, feeling like you don’t measure up.
Social media will be the death of me”
