Social media is such an unbelievably powerful tool. It can really be used as a force for good when it helps to bring people together, brings instant awareness of varying social issues (even if it’s for a hot minute) or displays virtual solidarity. However, it can also be used for evil purposes as we have all seen time and again.
Sometimes it feels as if we are living in two worlds. One is carefully and strategically curated and another which doesn’t have the luxury of the delete and edit button. It is not difficult to understand then when chaos and tension arrive, people are quick to defend based on what they see.
