Dear everyone: Social media has f****d up our heads, no ifs, ands or buts. It's everyone & our heads are being f****d up by some fancy programs.
It's a badly broken code. Just because some code runs OK doesn't mean it should run our lives. I opted out & social media is still interfering in my life.
I don't believe all the high-strung nonsense I hear from anyone anymore. If you legitimately believe the internet can represent human beings fully, then why do so many people use branded networks to interact? Are names & faces not enough anymore? Is hostility everyone's default now? Do we really need to base our sense of self on how well we can exclude others from our lives?
I'm not OK with silicon valley billionaires making our decisions for us in advance. I don't believe in electronic negativity. I actually work with technology instead of using it to demean people who are different from me. I think everyone has been sold on total subservience to a corporate agenda instead of giving a damn about each other.
