I think one of the most significant issues we’re dealing with currently that he mentioned briefly is social media. Social media is almost entirely a facade. People post what they want other people to see giving people a severe false sense of other’s reality. People post these pictures of these lavish vacations or happy family photos when in reality they’re in massive debt or on the brink of divorce. People then see these mirages so to speak and wonder why their lives aren’t that great meanwhile they’re doing the same thing on their social media. It’s keeping up with the Jones’s on steroids. Social media has become a cultural cancer.
I watched an acquaintance of mine -- I won't call them a friend --- go through a divorce, find new "love" in a rather quick fashion, and post every happy picture of themselves and their new partner for a short while.
Today, zero. Apparently, they have broken up, and it's nothing but self-help quotes and memes.
I like to say with social media, everyone's on their phone, but no one's talking.

And he was very correct that divorce affects women greatly afterwards. Men take the monetary brunt of it but we can form another relationship. Divorced women, especially with kids, tend to be considered tainted. Women have put value in taking the money but not their emotional happiness

There’s a guy that I follow on YouTube that says every post and sometimes much more often to remember “YouTube is a highlight video” and “real life isn’t like YouTube world”. He likes to talk about how long it took to film for his 20 min youtube and often times the footage takes 10-12 hours.
That’s pretty much social media in a nutshell.

Ha, this is such a common cycle.
