The clown and social media

Oh, how boring, again something about social media. As if not all is written about it already.

Some things, however, can not be repeated, or put in the spotlight, often enough.

We all know that the social media are a pretty important medium, in our world. We can ignore it, but the fact that there are so many people using it, means that we can not fade it away.

Many popular people use Facebook, Instagram and Twitter to profile theirselves, to promote their activities.  Some are beter in it then others.
Even the leader of the USA is using it.  Maybe no one knows what he is doing, but everyone knows he is using Twitter, and his list of followers is immense.

Followers can follow for several reasons. One is that they support the ideas of the person, or his intrests.  Another one is that folowers think that they are showing support, when they follow someone. Another reason is curiosity.  Maybe some people even follow others to see when the other makes mistakes, bloopers or whatever, so that they can nail them for their own profit/followers.

When someone is permanently in the spotlight, then the social media can help to spread his ideas. Even when we dislike what he is doing and saying, we still can make jokes about it, by saying how stupid he is.
But when he keeps on telling himself, and his fololowers, that he is the greatest, and that all others are fake, or sh!t,  then at least a few people shall take that for granted.
When the first provocations come, the fololowers might be shocked.  When the provocations continue (read, when he does not give a sh.....t  about what others think), there comes a point that it gets boring, no one finds it funny anymore. And the clown can continue his sick jokes, his horrible decissions, without that anyone takes notice of it.

The danger might be clear.  The longer the poison isspread, the more people get immume for it and the more people will just strug. Oh, it is him again.
At the other side, more and more people will be victim of the sick jokes.  A year ago the world was shocked, that the leader in America wanted foreigners out.  Now the deportations are not even getting news attention anymore,  they are common and happening daily.

Learn the lesson in this. Do NEVER accept things that hurt or disadvantage others.  Do NOT accept hate, do NOT accept racism or sexism, not even as joke.  It is NOT funny, and it is a true  threat for us all.

Be genuine. Be nice to others.  Hate returns hate. Smiles return smiles.  Choose wise, becauuse in the end I do not think that there are many people who really want to live in a world of hate.

Love, because love is life
