How fake it is people always show how perfect there life is it's a joke.
Replyagree. but its also a medium to obtain information about (not people) the world. The effects may be obviously that we dont socialize enough with people around us. Also we may get jealous of others achievements and lower our self confidence which is a huge effect.
ReplyI agree I don't get into Facebook much. I can't stand how people put up stuff like what there name means and how great they are as a person because they were born on a certain day it's laughable.
ReplyIt pisses me off how fake high and holy some people act when you know them in real life and how crappy theyve treated you in real life and act like a perfect little angel.
Also the like system. Its easy to get offended if someone doesnt like yours or you dont like their post. They should all be removed and just left with the option to comment. Example: how was i supposed to take this...i wished a person happy birthday.....they skipped over mine and liked EVERY OTHER PERSONS BIRTHDAY WISH BUT MINE. So i didnt think it was appreciated so i deleted it and they knew it offended me so they posted indirect things towards me like i was the bad guy. Mind you my post was in between others so there was no missing it.
Next is the comparison. Like others lives are sooooo much better than mine. Like yay road trip....yay vacation....yay pool party.... yay my boyfriend girlfriend or oh my bestie this or that...etc. ok those things are nice but its like people just want to make you jealous to think their lifes so much better especially when they donteven talk to you. It can just be depressing so im not sure its worth having or keeping. Ive contemplated deleting it. Whats the use if noone talks to you. Why should i have to contantly reach out to others and them not me. I mean what am i chopped liver ?
Next not caring if they offend others or post political stuff just to piss you off. Or post life story laundry then say mind your own business its nothing to you if someone comments something they dont like about it. Its everyones business once its made public lol.
ReplyI agree with everyone. It's people showing their fake selves.
I think it causes a lot of depression and suicidalTendencies .
ReplyYes i agree. Its made me feel hurt and depressed on multiple occasions.
ReplyNegative effect. People posting fake news and info...mindless sheep sharing the fake news, and all their sheep friends baaaa-ing over it.
ReplySocial media has it's pros & cons--you can connect with people and it's amazing to see all these other places in the world (ex: when you can type in any location on Instagram).
Ultimately though, I feel like it has negative effects on our lives. You find yourself creeping on ex bf/gfs. Creeping on other people, to where it gets obsessive. Comparing yourself to others' "perfect" lives. Catfishing people. Pyramid schemes.
It's a bit much. I miss the simpler days where the internet wasn't a thing.
