This is who we are
There is no denying that we live in a world where social is the hub for teens and us, young adults. However, we seem to contradict the fact social media is also altering the way he develops a perspective not only about our self but on the world around us. The world around is consistently full of false information and never-ending random online battles that have no solid ground and no foundation other than to stir the pot for no reason but to cause this already divided world to metastases into an online community of pure unmitigated savagery and hate. Why take the most significant platforms created by the most brilliant ordinary people and use to cause an unnecessary civil war, when we could be using these platforms to create a community where everyone feels like a unified body. We are destroying each other in person and online, we are telling kids struggling to find a group to belong, that they obviously weren't meant to be if they don't conform to the standards of society and the online world we have created and altered. Why are we turning a blind eye to our young killing themselves for being who they are? Why does no one care that we are dying off because of issues that we feel terrified to speak about? Why do blogs like mine receive no attention? Why do our leaders not care that we are slowly fading into graves from ages as early as adolescence? The blame is continuously placed on the menials and generation Y as if we intended to build a platform where we could express ourselves, only to create this massive war against each other. Society and political figures find it easier to paint us as the culprits for the social media war and the cyberbullying crisis and the increased suicide rates. In reality, we the younger generation are the victims of this crisis. Although adults can't control what we post, they have more grounds and power to take the world as we see it and get it on the executive floor than we do. The most we can do is try to lessen the blow of this online war that has been created. I have accepted that the probability of someone seeing this post will probably be fat, slim and none. But to anyone who finds this post, let it be known that you are not alone, there billions of us that have survived the war of social media and the attacks of cyberbullying and we have walked out scared but stronger.
We have the power to change the world of social media, we are the ones who will take back what was meant to be a platform where we could be unique and quirky. This is who we are
