Social media is vastly used to show support for a cause which is like "watching a murder scene in a film and crying for the dead in reality"
And it is the only way for knowing "unwanted news" happening in the outside world..
Ok that's enough... Its wrong to kill Social media and feed on people's intellect...
Let's look at it from the apex of a mountain..
Happiness must be seeked by appreciating, smiling, supporting and helping others.
Instead we pursue it to mock people whom we can't takle in realtime.. We think it is smart but it is an act of cowardice.
So don't say social media is a curse.
We are happy when people whom we never even see or say 'hi' to in realtime likes our comments/views on issues that we don't know completely..
So don't say social media is a curse.
We are glad when we become popular with just a photoshopped picture and inappropriate and useless comments.
So don't say social media is a curse
We are not even ready to understand the gravity of the underlying consequences of the silly actions that we do by spending hours.
When we try to see the problem here
1. Improper guidance
2. Unemployment which gives plenty of time to waste on
3. Half baked knowledge
are the reasons..
Social media is largely used for
1. Cheap popularity
2. Rumours spread for fun
3. Mockery
4. Revenge
5. Blackmailing
6. Gossip
This rubbish must be blocked ASAP as it affects a lot of masses without their knowledge...
Tax restrictions on social media to stop rumours in Uganda is a laudable move.
We must also increase the tarrifs for recharge.
