RE: BREXIT: do we benefit from it?

in WORLD OF XPILAR3 years ago

It seems that nowadays it is the easiest time to manipulate people especially using all modern Media, including twitter, telegram and even Tik Tok that never used. Actually, I try to avoid all those things, they are like swamp can suck people in and people are like addicted can't leave their mobile so that they do not miss anything. Frustrating to see that our young generation is growing with it.

In general everything that is happening now in UK concerns me very much and who knows what will be happening, but as always we all hope for better. Thank you for your comments, it was a pleasure to know your thoughts. By the way, why you do not post in via our community page. On and off I can nominate you for Community support @booming Upvote and also you can be seen by other moderators too.

If you meant my Doctor Strange review when asking about posting in WOX - I found a community page with beautiful flowers and interesting plants, and decided to try and see if I can fish some upvotes there. That plan didn't really work out. :(
WOX and my reviews are a tricky combination because people are posting pics, photos, art in there, and unless my post deals with some Bergman, Hitchcock, Lynch et al work, or independent art house, it may not fit in (as Martin Scorsese once said about Marvel blockbusters, "they are not cinema"). So I'm kinda careful with what I'd post as art.

I can only agree with your view regarding manipulation and media nowadays. It all happens fast, but at the same time, it is a lot easier to fact check everything as compared to the age before google and social networks were a thing. I think if one develops a list of trusted sources, all is not that bad.
Addiction is addiction - if it wasn't social network, it would be binge watching tv series or eating or something else as the root of addiction is usually psychological and not exactly a happy one. Other than that it's something that unites generations, and is a often just modern means of communication. So many times Youtube or TikTok videos actually show people have learnt or honed some skills, which I don't think is a bad thing.
