“The Good and the Bad: How Social Media Affected Me as a Gen Z Individual”

Communication has been encouraged and developed by social media. In this present era, these have made a significant contribution, but we can't ignore that social media has its negative impacts too. As a Gen Z individual, social media has influenced my ways of interacting, such as how I communicate online, how I express my views through tweets and posts, how I gather information, etc.

I sometimes use shortcuts when I converse on social media. It's terrible, I realized, because it destroys the language, syntax and semantics. Even, occasionally social media has even turned me toxic. For example, I share hurtful and very disrespectful posts that I'm not really proud of. Social media not only negatively influenced me, but also allowed me to make decisions more rational than subjective because facts and data are readily accessed and exchanged on the numerous channels that nurtured me at such a young age as a very educated person. In conclusion, social media sites like Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, and many more are all fine, but in moderation, because too much of anything could contribute to your misery, always remember.
