I am deleting my social media.
Instagram and Facebook is all I am on. But I’m done. These are my few thoughts to sum up my gripes.
It damages my ability to connect to people, art, real life, and myself.
It is the cigarettes of our generation.
It increases my judgement towards others and myself.
Ranking others below and above yourself is void of compassion and understanding.
My brain is overwhelmed with the constant input of social media and I lose the spaciousness of life that cleanses my mind and allows for new ideas to come.
As a person who values their own creative thinking on the highest level, I feel it is disrespectful towards my own growth to be distracted away from my own unique experience.
The constant misinterpretation of other people, because you only see the part of them they choose for you to see.
One might argue that a developed human brain is able to be fed so much information healthily and can handle the stimulation. No. I want my neckbeard back.
It tricks you into thinking you’ve experienced something.
Public prank culture is back, and it is more disrespectful than ever, because that’s what attracts the most attention.
Digital witch trials.
Drowning in low quality art.
Sacrificing your gift of living a unique life for that of a global mind.
I reject anything that takes away my freedom! So brazen, instagram.
So manipulated, human nature.
Wrong way.
I want to stop swimming upstream.
Onto better things!
