This facts tbh tho. Soon as a see some bs hitting the TL that s*** get muted 😮‍💨 I don’t think a lot of people are aware that you can mute people/certain words from your feed now.

I gaht enamees gahtalatta enamees

But yeah social media is fake but life has always been fake. Nobody really move and speak how they really feel.

Are you 15? Do you not know what social media was like before it was basically a giant ad?

Some guy in music sxn said rn its cool to like s*** ironically, how much faker can you be.

I feel genuine pity for Gen z

Nobody is liking s*** ironically. Y’all are taking the word from some chronically online weirdo and applying it to an entire generation. Idk anyone who likes music ironically

honestly the way our parent’s generation uses facebook is how it used to be back then, just good vibes and keeping in touch with people near and far. Cute lil life updates now and then but not really glamorizing s*** or putting on an act to impress others

I agree that everything has gone to s*** but you’re also in control of a majority of the content you get to view. Definitely consider unplugging for a couple weeks and see how you feel

I see it all the time.

Facebook has damaged my parents beyond repair

Sorry to hear that, yeah I guess what I said was a pretty big generalization but it definitely applies to my own experience at least

what about them has changed?

This is why music is in a hell hole right now,cause of ironically liking bullshit

i unfollowed everyone

Just peeped that dude deleted his post yeah my mom be on fb chillin posting gospel quotes/lyrics and just leaving nice comments on everyone’s page it’s actually really endearing

I went through and unfollowed/deleted most people that I personally don’t know, but even still I just see my immediate circle still adhering to these “rules” or “behaviors” that are normalized online. Just weird man. I respect people who post what they want just because it makes them happy or w/e

They now see every single thing through a political lens

Idk how many times I have said to my parents “why is that a thought in your head?”

I don’t think this is the angle of fake you’re getting at but it truly is. People post so much 🧢 on socials rather it’s their lifestyle, their political views, who they are as a person, etc. one thing I’ve learned over the years is a lot of this online SJW stuff is bs. The amount of people (mainly white women) I know that have moderate to large accounts online pushing progressive women or socialist movements do not move like that off socials. Actually complete opposite. Same thing applied to a lot of these “progressive” men just trying to get p****. All these alt people with BLM in their bios and filtered on their pics are hella racist. None of this s*** is real is my dude.

I don’t and I’m actually in that age group

My boy who moved out to LA a few years ago when he blew up as a reactionary YouTuber moved back to our city. He posted a really interesting video about how the LA lifestyles you see online are mostly cap. How people pay ridiculous money just to go some place to take pics for IG to look lit and get engagement then be dead broke with nowhere to stay crashing on someone’s couch.

Maybe not as bad as I think.

But most of the kids that come for tutoring/workouts/tournaments only listen to music for external reasons.

is, not feels

Link to video? That sounds interesting

but thats on you to do something about it

capitalism bad thread #64894631

Yeah man it’s disappointing. And I know it’s easier said than done especially when it’s ppl that are close to you but try not to get so hung up on what others are doing, I know there’s a sense of defeat in that but that’s just the world we live in today. It doesn’t make them inherently fake or bad people, kinda just the status quo
