How social networks influence your life.Weekend Commitment.Week 218.
I remember perfectly well that before using social networks we were a society (my society) white and pure as the foam of the waves of the sea or perhaps, as the amorphous crystals of salt, not so white, not so pure, but the truth is that our minds were more linear, conservative and much less conflictive.
At the beginning it was only young people who conquered and built an anarchist and free society on Facebook, free expression was a success for those who had never before had a real "expressive space", maybe to other people it seems a useless circumstance but this social network has become a powerful and dangerous tool for some and liberating for others.
Facebook opened the doors of free thought in my society
This was the case for a number of years until it challenged the established thinking of some of the peoples' leaders.
Why do I like Facebook?
I like Facebook because I have had access to super nice information about dissimilar things, it is not only a place for those who like to exhibit their travels or their achievements, it is also a site where you find a variety of groups in which you can participate according to your approach in life, finding yourself as an individual contributing to society is seriously important to me.
In a voluntary conscious way I am on sites that support abused women, abandoned animals and needs of certain resources for other people, yes, that is also found on facebook although for others it sounds like fraud and scam.
But as Facebook is supposed to be a multipurpose social network, you will find everything in the Lord's vineyard.
What are the negative aspects of Facebook?
Both Facebook and Twitter are a web of cultural colonization, psychological warfare, dueling declarations, people's non-credible stories, people eating like animals, make-ups galore, scandals, sensationalism, plus the many trips, especially to the moon.
Luckily we have the wonderful key that allows us to block.
Yesterday my feed was flooded with millions of articles about the new film premiere "Breaking the Circle", starring Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni,Facebook choked on the news , how strange....I imagine they must have paid a huge sum, it doesn't matter which social network we are watching,they all need to monetise, don't they?
Others?
As for YouTube, I think it's flatter and more peaceful, even if you can see more verifiable facts and in real time than on others, but truth and lies are only divided by a thin visual line that are nicely projected on a staging set.
Everything is tainted due to manipulation.
WhatsApp is one of my favorites, it has an efficient security system, but lately it has added many channels "allowing access to breaking information" that are over the top, and the truth is that I still prefer it more private, more modest and less invasive.
Instagram, on the other hand, is mostly and in my ridiculous opinion, just about looking perfectly beautiful and flawless.
Right now the world will not do without social networks, because they have become a routine part of our lives, and addictions are difficult to accept and difficult to manage, and the big problem is that they are constantly being used to manipulate your opinion, your tastes, your priorities, and your life.
You wake up with your cell phone in your hands, and you go to bed with your eyes on the last message you got from Hive, Messenger, or WhatsApp.
Social networks have turned you into a codependent individual of your cell phone,but beyond that, you decide whether you let yourself be manipulated by them or not.

You know, I don't have facebook, instagram or tik tok hahaha.
When I used to teach computer classes I used to tell my students about the risks of the networks and how all the networks spy on us and control us without us realising.... and that the issue of privacy is very important, because we don't know who is reading.
Also, many of these networks show only the content they want people to believe and not the real content. These are the points that I see as negative... I have studied them for many years...
Just last night I was looking at an article on how information was being manipulated from dozens of phones by one person, OMG that's a lot of people doing that.
I enjoyed fbk very innocently, and that brought me problems of many kinds, today I just log in to look, update myself on certain facts, and read what interests me.
Behind those screens there are people watching you, even WhatsApp is cloned from a national company, horrible.
I congratulate you, you are a healthy and free person, I have to decontaminate myself from these rattlesnakes.
Thank you for your support.

I learned this a long time ago and I don't like what's behind it, nor the people behind it collecting information from all over the world, it's like a big database.
We come to learn... each one in his own time.😘
Exactly.
Someone is watching us from on high and it's not exactly a God.

You are right!👁
Interesante conocer tu opinión de un tema, sobre el cual, todo el que está relacionado con el entorno virtual, obligatoriamente recibirá, de algún modo, su influencia.
Mi experiencia me ha llevado a dudar sobre cualquier información que se difunda a través de RR.SS. Trato siempre de buscar más allá y contrastar.
Otra cosa que ha llamado mi atención es como si juzgáramos por lo que se publica en RR.SS. sobre ciertos temas pareciera que todos tenemos un pensamiento uniforme. Entonces es cuando llegan las dudas. El bombardeo masivo de información para crear una línea de opinión, hace que los que puedan no estar de acuerdo, se reserven su criterio para no discernir y separarse de la manada. Tampoco podemos olvidar, que se ignora la opinión de los que no tienen acceso o no hacen uso (pues su tiempo lo tienen que emplear en la supervivencia en un mundo real) de estas tribunas virtuales.
Las RRSS nos venden un falso concepto de libertad de expresión y democracia. Se han expuesto no pocos casos, con pruebas que lo certifican, de como nos manipulan, aunque nos empeñemos en sostener la fantasía de que no somos manipulables. Hasta ese grupo que, como decía antes, no se expresa a través de las RRSS, recibe su influencia. ¿Acaso no has escuchado a la abuelita del barrio alguna vez decir: en feisbu dijeron...?
Telegram se ha convertido en mi red social favorita. Ahí puedo elegir los grupos y canales de mi interés. Tampoco creo que esté libre del mal que aqueja a las otras. Del resto, tengo mis cuentas en casi todas, pero hago un uso mínimo de las mismas. Casi nunca publico, más bien soy un consumidor poco entusiasta y evito involucrarme.
Algo sí está claro: las redes sociales, son una realidad virtual (valga el oxímoron) y no podemos prescindir de ellas si queremos estudiar, trabajar, compartir, divertirnos... en la sociedad del siglo XIX. Solo nos queda a nosotros, entes insignificantes de esa grandiosa red, hacer las cosas de una mejor manera para que encontremos en las RRSS un lugar más propicio para el aprendizaje, la amistad y el ocio.
Excelente tema para el debate. Me gustó tu forma de abordarlo. 👍
No queda más que decir sobre ello, si quieres puedes unirte y hacer de tus palabras un buen texto que estoy segura muchos van a disfrutar y a coincidir contigo...
Gracias por el apoyo @leopard0

Unfortunately they are trying to make society always consume their content to make a lot of money.
Money and monitoring of our minds...
Let's disconnect like in the Matrix...we can't be so manipulable, can we?

Facebook is not my favorite, I get censored too much for giving my opinion, and I feel like they only accept false opinions. Instagram, yes, I agree with you, it is the website where everyone is perfect, until they created reels that give it a more real touch and I like that, in fact, reels are the content I consume the most because there are always interesting things to see. An example, today I found an account that teaches you how to use AI.
But it's like everything, social networks are just web pages, those who make them bad, good or frivolous are the users.
Así es querida amiga.
Siempre usé mucho fbk porque era el boom del momento y me ayudó a reconectarme con muchísima gente dentro y fuera del país y ahí comenzó todo: me acosaron , me sancionaron, me hicieron llamados de atención, en fin... solo comparto cosas que me gustan de forma sencilla y permanezco dentro de algunos grupos que me gustan...
En Instagram solo he aprendido sobre poses bonitas para fotos, lo más bonito de ella es la calidad de sus imágenes...y para reír está bien... ahí la tengo para visitar de vez en cuando.
Hive me consume toda...😁
❤️
I believe that nothing is so bad or so good... it just is. We are the ones who determine the percentage of influence it has on our lives.

Yes, it's about finding the point where it doesn't affect you too much, or not too much.
By the way, I love your Instagram photos.
Oh, thank you, 😊
