In recent years, social media has become an essential part of our lives. Most people use it daily in different aspects and for multiple goals. Some people use it for entertainment; others use it for work, such as in the marketing field. But like anything in our life, it has pros and cons. So, in this essay, let’s discuss the two points of view.
Social media benefits us by melting borders all over the world between people, especially families. You can contact any member of your relatives or friends from any place at any time you can call them and see them through social media applications like Facebook, Messenger, and WhatsApp. That makes our lives really fascinating.
On the other hand, there are dangerous disadvantages of social media. People can become addicted to scrolling through social media applications to get a dopamine rush from the content they see. However, not all the news and content you see is accurate or correct; some of it is used to spread propaganda and market harmful things. Social media also makes people lazy and leads them to expect everything to come easily wherever they are.
At the end of this discussion about social media a topic that has great benefits, connects us with people we love, and saves our time we must also acknowledge that it has extremely bad disadvantages and has lately become a threat to people’s lives, especially children who use social media in the wrong way. So I hope all of us use it to do better things and stay far from its threats.
