Do you think social media is overhyped?

Question

jennifer_bloom · Accepted Answer

I think I am better at getting attention than a news anchor but have only been paid $50 a year in gift cards for all the attention I get on this site. I have not figured out how to become professionally successful without breaking moral principles and I’ve been trying to figure that out for years. Friends can make you smile, but you need money for everything else.

Yes but I kinda like it since you can see the world through other peoples eyes or photos. For example I get to see places you visit through your photos. I will most likely never get to visit these places. Or if I get a chance to visit I will know what to look for because of social media.

Yes, unfortunately, social media is an environment where people reflect their imaginations. Social media also reflects people's dreams that they do not exist in reality.

It's a part of everyday life now, unfortunately. You can say it is not real life and go touch grass to people, but then you see women getting plastic surgery or a 35-year-old woman dressing up in a dog outfit to take pictures because of stuff she saw on social media. It's the same thing for men. They act in certain ways. Social media tells them women will like them for it.

You see people on Tik Tok trying medically diagnosis their girlfriend or boyfriend with Narcissist personally disorder even though they don't fully understanding what constitutes for a Narcissist diagnoses.

13-year-old's posting their medications and mental conditions online and when they grow up and try to get a job an employer see it online and thinks they are too crazy to handle the job and don't hire them for it. People posting pictures of themselves wearing their fetish suit online and wondering why they can't get a job again this is real life.

A few months ago a woman told me about her mental health and I told her that is not something you tell someone you just meet and she got offended. Companies are trying to run a business and make a profit they are not here to accept you for who you are or like you walk around their office dressed in your fetish suit. It is okay to be kinky, but that should be in your private home with you and your wife or husband.

But social media is promoting for people to talk about their mental illness or fetish publicly and trying make people accept them for who they are. Again it's okay you talk about those things in private, but outside in public is probably not the best idea.

Social media negatively affects most people that use it and ruins their chances of having healthy, happy, long term relationships, BUT most people would rather have a bad life so they can get likes and attention from strangers than give up social media once in a relationship.

I think it’s over saturated more than over hyped. I’ve never had TikTok or Twitter but I did have instagram and over just been bombarded with stuff, I had to delete my account because I was wasting time on pointless things.

No, but there's WAY TOO MUCH misinformation and offensive crap on social media.
