Gabby Petito's body believed to have been found near Grand Teton National Park….

We have no clue yet if the apparent death of this young woman was the result of foul play, a suicide or an accident.

Yet this unfolding drama provides an important lesson for young people in our times: popular social media platforms like Instagram and YouTube are too often expressions of an ultimately hollow existence.

The blissfully happy and photogenic young couple in the picture perfect relationship documented in real-time actually both were two very troubled souls in a toxic relationship.

When couples seems all giddy, in love and happy on Instagram something bad is going on or soon to happen.

Instagram, tick tok, Facebook and Twitter are all fake. These platforms distort real life to magnify some problems while minimizing the joy of real human interaction. They are a scourge to our society and contributing to our burgeoning mental health crisis.

The media has gone back to their missing pretty young blonde trick to change the narrative.

People who think their life is not complete without daily use of these entities are looking for two things - praise from their fellow man when things are going right with them or sympathy from their fellow man when things are going wrong with them, i.e., they seek attention.

She probably fell off a cliff or something while they were arguing. There are reports the cops got called somewhere to investigate a domestic disturbance involving these two. I'm thinking they got in a catfight. She fell and he feared he'd get charged with manslaughter. Tourist ignoring safety barriers and falling happens occasionally. Sad. Poor parents.

I figure the MSM media is pouncing on this in order to draw attention away from the human tragedy brewing along our southern border near Del Rio, Texas. You know shield Plugs. Miserable parasites these MSM maggots.

That is the point of the post: much of social media too often offers a distorted view of reality.

This is such a weird case.

I'm obviously very confident the boyfriend is hiding something.

But, the idea that this is just a simple murder seems off.

Something fricked up and weird is going to come out of this.

No one could confuse my wife and me for giddy travelers. First five minutes of a drive and it's, "Do you want to f'ing drive!? Just drop my arse off and you can drive across the country with two babies." something something I'm going suck on the tailpipe you selfish country music lover.

Was it the fact that he’s not cooperating with police tip you off?



Hadn’t followed updates, but last I heard he was MIA as well. Has he been found yet?

Well yeah. What I probably meant to type is I'm confident he's hiding something bad that he did.

But, it just feels like when we find out, it's gonna be a lot weirder than just, "dude killed her".

I don't think so. Although I doubt he's some criminal genius, so, they probably will

I admittedly don’t know much about this case, but it’s been weird to me how much traction this case got so quickly with the national media. This seems like something you’d see on Dateline or 48 hrs. What makes this one different? Honest question.

Not every day do they keep a public video account of their travels. And they were a young couple not exactly struggling in life to make ends meet … far from typical for their journey to end this way.
