An artist recently told me that he doesn’t use social media because he finds it dangerous. He believes that everything he shares can be used against him. I told him it depends on how you use social media, but he was partly right. While major powers like politicians or big financial situations may not use everything against you, there’s a horde of people who don’t care about you. They read your ideas, topics, or in my case, see your art for just a few seconds and then leave offensive comments like “Kill yourself.” Not everyone feels comfortable opening up on social media; it’s tough because you’re under the scrutiny of a society that pretends to be good and helpful but will stab you in the heart whenever it can. Society is us, and we all have problems. We hate our families, jobs, places – everything. We rarely love something, especially in industrialized countries like mine where people suffer from extreme depression.
Attacking on social media is one way to express hate towards society, but targeting the first person you see and attacking them is like the psycho people with guns who sometimes kill thousands of people in schools in the USA. It’s the same mechanism, different place – no weapons, just words, but the same procedure. “Go and attack randomly. Why? I don’t know.” And I’m a target, like some others on these platforms. Attacks exist constantly on the internet. Every day, I remove thousands of evil comments to give a better experience to others, but trust me, their number is massive. Just like the total number of evil comments left by everybody everywhere on the internet in this new cage of crazies who bite each other. So yes, maybe this artist was right; the internet is not okay. It can be a very dangerous place.
Anyway, That’s all for Today…💀
