As someone who became an adult before social media was a thing, it has absolutely been a detriment to society.

There’s great aspects to it and I utilize them. But as a whole, it has FUUUUCKED us up in a very significant way.

There is a direct correlation between the rise of social media and the absolute nosedive our political discourse has taken. Misinformation is SO much more prevalent now. And that rise in misinformation is definitely having real world effects.
