1) Social media platforms are overwhelmingly, if not exclusively, feminine apps/websites. There’s really no reason for dudes or baws to be posting on Facebook, Instagram etc. It has caused people to waste so much time and has dumbed down the world in general.

2) Social media platforms have done more to harm society than help it. It is what has caused so much of the polarization. If it was just connecting with family and friends without posting views and commentary it may be worth joining. Unfortunately people, mainly females, worry about how many likes or loves or retweets they get. They judge their worth based on the response from others. It becomes a drug and easily leads to depression. Lots of people have used social media to aid in their adulterous behavior.

3) People say things through social media, this applies to message boards too, that they would never say to another person’s face. People have lost jobs over their posts.

To any of you college students looking for a topic to write about in your English class, you’re welcome.

There used to be gatekeepers to effectively utilize tech. It took smarts and learning.

Now a damn monkey can operate these things, so it’s no surprise they fill up with the lowest common denominators with more time than sense

If that is what you’ve gathered through all that then your reading comprehension is low.

I agree. People take what they see on Facebook as fact. You can’t rationalize with these people.

Yep.

And the people running these companies are twenty year olds who have no life experience and yet are trying to control our lives by telling us what's right and wrong. frick them. I'm talking to the google, facebook and twitter frickers.

Facebook was significantly better when you needed a .edu email address to register. Some of the shite on there now makes me wonder how people even turn on a computer much less create an account and post

It has given everyone a voice, everyone doesn’t need a voice.

Which provide hours of entertainment, amd occasionally incriminate themselves. Who can forget the shark life crew.

Read a comic book.

That's a Christmas idea for you fellas!

I suggest Superman, Batman, Spiderman and The Hulk. Buy old shitty ones cause they will get messed up by the humidity.

We hold in our hands supercomputers capable of accessing the collected knowledge of the ages, and communicating across the planet, and idiots use it to put puppy dog ears on pictures and find things to be offended by on behalf of other people,


It’s a waste
