Just round up the measly penny!

"Social Media in some ways."

"Social media has had an amazing amount of influence, but for all the good that it does, it also creates a 'toxic mirror' effect."

"This is the concept of making people feel bad about themselves by constantly being exposed to information that would make them create negative opinions about themselves."

"The toxic mirror makes anything that isn’t physical, emotional, and mental perfection, ugly and bad for that person."

"Beyond the toxic mirror, many people use social media in ways that hurt the people around them."

"The manifestation of a social persona can often present the opportunity for a user to put out very public misinformation."

"This break from reality further muddies people’s ability to properly identify risk, putting them in harmful situations."

"The Internet is filled with trolls, stalkers, and bullies."

"These groups are allowed to run rampant, as people don’t have a lot of resources to ward against them."

"These individuals hide behind their Internet persona, making civil action against them extremely difficult."

"Cyberbullying, specifically, can cause great harm to people of all ages."- KnotKarma

They achieve nothing except making me feel bad about myself

"Credit scores and algorithms that value engagement over quality of content so that sh*tty provocative things which get 100s of hate responses and volatile comments are all anyone sees and thinks we're all the worst of humanity."

"It's like that South Park arc about the Danish trolls coming to fruition, a posts something to get a rise out of b who responds which makes c and d respond and so on."

"Only it's like all the internet is."

"A pyramid scheme of rage clicks."- renaaria

Only time will tell what else modern inventors have in store for us.

For better or worse.
