Is Social Media Destroying Society? Former Facebook Exec Says 'Yes'

[fluid hips]

I just keep IG to under 100 followers. People I interacted with at some point in life like classmates. Never followed these "models"

Lately IG has been pushing "suggested" stories or accounts I should follow. Like nah. I'm good.

The explore page is what always got me into the rabbit hole, it'll suck not sending memes to close friends but that's a useless time consumer.

More Americans are getting news on TikTok, bucking the trend seen on most other social media sites

In just three years, the share of U.S. adults who say they regularly get news from TikTok has more than quadrupled, from 3% in 2020 to 14% in 2023.

Damn, that father messed up.

I never like stuff like this being put on the internet though. It isn't our business.

I am not condoning what the father did.

Everyone is open to skepticism but i would hope at the very least we would admit having toddlers hold BDSM dolls is a little wild right?

Why do people idolize Balenciaga? Serious question. I see people looking like walking billboards with their clothing

I just deleted my ig...man I've caught myself on it too much, once I unlocked my phone my fingers went straight to the social media smh

This was me, wake up in the morning and first think I'd do is grab my phone and scroll away, looking at a bunch of BS. Had to delete IG, reddit and a few other apps. Been about a week, crazy how many times I grab for my phone knowing there's nothing on there.

Amazing scary how much technology can get a hold of you

Symbol of wealth, Falls under the same reason why we idolize BMW, BENZ, LV, Gucci etc.

I just don’t understand how anyone over 30 even uses a tik tok… and the fact that people don’t realize when something is staged.

It’s embarrassing seeing adults do that s****

People have been doing dumb **** for attention since mankind existed.

America's Funniest Home Videos has been on the air since 1989.

 

[fluid hips]

Yea but now you have people that genuinely believe they are one video away from being an influencer and a millionaire

 

[finessence]

Everything wasn’t documented by the minute back then either. And you literally had to tune in at 7 or 8 o clock at night to watch that show.

People are literally scripting these silly storylines for gullible people.

The closest thing we had in the 2000s was Jackass and the Andy D*** show… and they didn’t air everyday

Legitimately think Tik Tok is a weapon against our society.
