Beware of PR
Social media plays a huge role in turning personal issues into public issues. There is almost no “personal” anymore in this modern era.
The sad thing is, we are slowly becoming accustomed to hating people because of what PR and media feed us. One thing is for sure — we are evolving in a very negative direction.
We can literally burn an entire family into ashes in every comment section without even knowing the full story.
I'm not saying we should stop using social media or only use it productively and positively. We need entertainment, and I need entertainment too.
But somewhere along the way, we have started accepting bad news as brain food. At the end of the day, negativity itself has become entertainment for us — unless and until it happens in our own life.
Maybe we should pause before becoming part of someone else's destruction.
