It's really not though.
My MIL made us all go on some hike in the Smokey mountains to some observatory in the middle of peak season.
There were thousands of people there and she bitched THE WHOLE TIME. Parking was a nightmare and it took us like 3 hours to do the 1 mi hike.
Then my wife showed me the pictures and comments she made on Facebook.
She had a miserable time on the actual hike but just wanted her friends to see what a good time she had with her family and how adventurous we are.

People have been going on to pretty places and taking pictures in front of them since we invented cameras.
They would then come home, put those pictures in a vacation album, and show their friends when they came over.
Does being able to do that instantly with more people make it any worse?
Social media hasn't changed people. It has simply provided them another tool to interact, share, and be narcissistic assholes.

Your MIL having narcissism issues doesn't mean everyone else does.
