This week was interesting. We considered the boundaries of social media while evaluating its reach for the assignment due. While my assignment is not done, I saw how some videos can have a much greater each than expected. They can catch currents of culture and discussion and have a life of their own. Moreover, I leanened how it is almost impossible to escape your phone. I think we are becoming a hive mind.
We are losing the restrictions that give us definition. We are focusing on connection without introspection. Focusing on content without meaning. Focusing on reach over intimacy. Even though I have learned much from social media, it still does not seem worth it. It is still watering down meaning and purpose. It is still sacrificing substance for entertainment.
