Narcissis at the well…
that is what i see today as far as people on social media, and the way they can only see their collective reflection as opposed to what is reality. Even if they can recognize their own periphery it is that of the reverse world, or mirror world where the periphery is backwards and upside down, inside out…that is social media. It has become THEIR reality, but it is a shell of a broken society coming together in one area to look at the faded image of a face on the surface, swirling underneath with bad intent and inhumanity.
What ever happened to individuality? You have millions of ” individuals ” all doing the same exact thing, while they claim to be unique. They share like-minded posts which are already there for them to choose from, and they are there according to a strict list of dos and don’ts, ” rights and wrongs ” …set in place by AI bots which were programmed by the humans in charge of these social media platforms, so that every supposed free person thinks they’re showing their own face to the rest of the world, but the image is cracked and filtered beyond repair into a sneering mask of chaos and untruth.
Each person shares a story without ever looking into it, and doesn’t really care either way, just as long as the rest of the world knows all about them; their life, their history, their future plans. Ego drives their every step.
All they are seeing is their twisted reflection in a swamp of cancer and poisonous intent; brought to life by the human need for society, good or bad. Verification, validation is the key. They’re not actually getting either of these but they are convinced they need to stay and share more about themselves.
Therefore, social media is a detriment to society.
