Social media has emerged as an influential force in the world, shaping opinion, connecting people across the globe, and providing a platform for self-expression.
However, a dangerous trend can be seen in the Kashmir valley amid the vast ocean of information, i.e. the spread of stupid content. The main culprits behind the spread of stupid content are self-styled journalists and politicians.
The race of Like, Share, and Comment is giving up thinking skills. Social media users need to recognize their power in shaping narratives. With great power comes great responsibility, and we owe it to ourselves to exercise discretion when posting and endorsing content.
Promoting responsible social media behavior and engaging in conversations that contribute positively to society is imperative. Foster an environment where differing opinions can be respectfully discussed.
It is important to consider the potential impact of the content you share. Try to share content that adds value to the online space.
The social media age requires a collective commitment to responsible posting. By promoting critical thinking, fact-checking, and constructive discourse, we can raise the quality of content on these platforms.
It’s time to move away from mindless engagements and promote informed conversation.
Instead of commenting on stupid content and posts by stupid personalities, report it. Remember that your sharing of this content further promotes it.
It is the time to address this issue and advocate for responsible posting on social media platforms.
