They always claim to be religious.It's similar to how kristian nutters always claim to be 'not religious'. ...
How 'PC' of you. Why would I want to feel what a clearly disturbed individual feels?And you clearly have no empathy, being the tough old boiling fowl that you are. You can't help that of course. ...
But social media(SM) doesn't tell you what's going on. The algorithms just tell you what you'd like to think is going on.Unless someone wants to go and live under a rock as a hermit for the rest of their life there is going to be a substantial level of awareness of social media. How can you expect a child at school not to know what's going on?
Interestingly enough the yoof tend to use SM differently from the adults as they use it as a tool to actually connect in RL.Young people now depend on social media for their social existence. ...
And how would you know this?I don't even know how to use Twitter, but somehow I still know what's going on in the world, and even on Twitter to an extent. I avoided reading the paper for a while or watching TV news, but still managed to be more aware of what was going on in the world than the average person.
What is this 'average person'?
Like I say, upon the whole SM just tells you the world is like you wish it to be. It's the ultimate in confirmation bias and selective reading writ large.
