    • @vampiredraculaura
      @vampiredraculaura 9 годин тому +47

      Yes. Humans are not meant to hear so much bad news all day everyday. This is a mostly new thing, honestly, because of social media. For a long time, people only focused on their local communities and maybe the country if they heard news from word of mouth or the papers. Now our minds are filled with so much doom all the time over stressful things that we cannot do much to help with. It’s another reason why I deleted most of my social media accounts.. I’m very passionate about a lot of views and such, but as one person, I can’t solve all of the worlds problems, so why not focus on my own hobbies, family, etc. Sitting around feeling terrible about it won’t do anything except make us feel worse.

    I think it would be interesting to do this prompt with slightly older people. Like mid-20’s to early 30’s, since we were the generation that went from having basic mobile phones & a family computer in our younger years like 8-12, THEN smart phones became prevalent when we were in middle/highschool, we caught the beginning & end of MySpace, and were there for the beginning of Facebook, insta, and Twitter. So we saw the early internet, the Wild West if you will, like when viral videos were the same videos EVERY one else saw & it wasn’t as scattered or tailored yet. We had a very different experience w social media & the internet in general, because it was SO new at the time. These kids have only ever experienced the internet where social media is already established & a prevalent part of culture. In the older demographic as well, I think the effects are more obvious, & I think it’s easier to find people who aren’t as active in social media now as well & how different their life might look from someone who is very active online.

    I feel like we as humans were never meant to know and be able to hear everyone's opinions. So many people on social media seem to have a "main character" mentality and lack the introspection to see the flaws in their behaviour. Especially since the pandemic, people in general seem much more entitled to everything and are unable to take opposing opinions or criticism into consideration. This is made worse by the echo chamber that is created on their social media feed based on what they engage with.

    Why is there not a mix of ages for this? It would have been interesting hearing the different perspectives.
    I personally first used social media when I was 14. This was back in 2008 and I used Bebo and Facebook and even dabbled in MySpace lol. I had used computers since I was a kid but social media was a new concept. Not like it is today where kids have grown up with it and it's just a normal part of day to day life. I miss how the internet used to be honestly. Social media has ruined everything for the worst, I truly believe this. Defending it because it's your line of work isn't really a solid argument.

But as for when I’ll get back into it, I honestly don’t know when but maybe when the new year 2025 arrives.

    They're all lying about the hate comment thing. Probably because of the lack of anonymity. Did you see how quick they were to raise their hand for the reverse? Everyone's a victim. No one wants to be the "bad guy". But taking a step back and acknowledging that and striving to become better is what life is all about. Live your authentic life.
    And FYI whoever cares, yes i've been on both ends, receiving and delivering hate online, forgetting that these words on the screen in front of me were written by an actual human that I might actually get along with in person. Have a great day everyone, continue doom-scrolling. :D
