IF you run a business that you need to promote, there is no real way around using social media to promote it in some capacity. If you are rich, you can probably just hire a marketing firm to handle the seedy underbelly of it all I guess. The problem I notice frequently with the world now is that too many people are rooted in reality by their own perceptions and understanding, and they can't understand the experiences and struggles of others. It's so comfortable to project the attitude of "It's fine for me, therefore it's fine for everyone else" that it disrupts debate and resolution of meaningful problems our world faces. We're all so used to bonding with others that have our exact same composition and outlook, that wen end up being blind to others that don't fit into that. We need to stop using individual tropes like this to dismiss and answer problems, they are really not applicable to the issue for so many others, and really not helpful in discussions. For many people around the world, finding 5$ a day for dinner based on social media posting success would dramatically change their quality of life. Social media companies literally make Billions of dollars, and share VERY LITTLE of it with contributors... Opportunity in this world is shrinking along with all the other crises many struggling people face, the matter is much larger than turning off TVs and preventing kids from using devices in schools. No offense intended, But to act as if you can simply "turn it all off" and enjoy life is not an option for many many people... Walk in the shoes of others here, look at discussions through different glasses than your own.
