Facebook Users Have Upgraded Their Minds

in #philosophy7 years ago

Without realizing it, Facebook users have upgraded their minds. By simply using the platform, users have gained the ability to communicate with everyone they've ever known at once from anywhere !

In the past, friends, teachers, collegues and family were all interacted with seperately. Upgraded Facebook users now talk to all these groups at once and are accepting this as normal.

Personally I find this trend very disturbing. Human interactions are meant to be seperate between groups. Now there's no room for error as you have to try and please everyone all the time. Political correctness is the side effect which has become fashionable.

There's an old saying, if you try to please everyone, no one will be happy.

I agree and I think that's why people are not themselves on Facebook, or why you see so many freaking tourists just going somewhere to snap a picture without even knowing about it or appreciating. Just because they want to show the world.

It is curious to think that for future generations this interaction with people from social niches outside their own is something they will simply take for granted. Good article invited you to follow me. I'll follow you right back.
