How do your social media networks mirror your own existence?
social media has mirror my own existence in a really limited way. this is because the content that we posted online had duration of cure as times Fly quickly the situation will be forgotten or even delete its trace from the world of social media. most people will only post the bestest of the best among all of the part of their life, or use it as a main purpose of making themselves look good or cooler than others. it reflect the most highlighted things of my life and the content that I wanted to post online but its not necessarily what my life or existence will be irl as I don't share some of the things that I felt sensitive or too personal.
the friend or the people Im following In social media also doesn't reflect myself as whole. most people have maybe about thousands or more than the the connection with the social media society but its only like 10-15 percent only as they never know each other as whole. although they followed, comments, dm, pm, liked the post or the people, that doesn't means that it reflect everything as whole of a persons existence. I had a irl friend who followed and dm me through social media but never talked to me at all during face to face.
in all of the above, my social media networks mirror my existence of choice and privacy, as what I share, post and comment in the social media network its only relatable or even I felt safe and secured as it do not expose my real self. I have come across people who talks about their super private life like sex life to open that they felt the need to share however, I'm uncomfortable with that type of content and I tend not to post or share that type of aspect of my life
if my social media networks mirror my existence, then they are rose-tinted mirrors and with a limited view.
