By looking at all of the willful deception and extremist propaganda that social media enables activists to spread, it is clear that social-media-enabled activism does more harm than good; this is important because, to stop this plague from continuing to pollute social media, social media activists’ messages must be censored. The damage that social-media-enabled activists cause each day cannot be overlooked, even in the context of all the good social media can supposedly do.

Social media has become a powerful tool for activists to spread their messages and influence people. This kind of social-media-enabled activism’s greatest yet most troubling feature is that it is open to everyone. That everyone encompasses wildly different people, cultures, and ideological beliefs, and social media affords social justice advocates and terrorists alike the ability to reach billions of people. Global social media use is growing, and, with it, the number of people activists that utilize social media can reach and influence is growing.

When anyone, even more specifically the elderly, listens to louder more upbeat music, it takes more for them to process it. Because of these circumstances, their mood can be affected in an alternative way than the happy upbeat music was originally intended. Furthermore, in the case of those who wear hearing aids, the devices often skew the sound of the music which could make it more undesirable to listen to.

However, studies have shown that social media is actually doing more harm than good regarding our mental health. With the rise of social media in the 21st century the rise of depression, anxiety, and ADHD is present as well. This negative impact of social media on our mental health has a lot to do with the amount of time we spend on the screen and with the design of social media itself.

There are many reasons why certain genres of music differently affect people’s moods and why some people prefer one type of music while others favor a completely opposite genre; certain factors such as the characteristics of music (tempo, beat, and pitch), personalities, and developmental issues all affect the way we view music and whether or not we feel connected to the artist.

The saying "news travels fast" might be an old one, but the 21st century brings it a whole new meaning. The creation of social media has taken the world of news and transformed it completely, as it allows information to be spread to a whole new plethora of people in a brand new way. Before social media people would be forced to spread news and such orally, then in written form, then with television programs, until finally media platforms online gave easy accessibility to everyone. It became routine for one to unlock their phone and within two seconds be reading about the most recent event on twitter. Between school shootings, celebrity sightings, government lawmaking, and many more, social media has been able to inform people within minutes of what is happening. This is why activists have taken their platforms to the many social media sites to express their cause and easily spread it to users.

People try to make light of these situations with humor, when that is the last place humor should be used. Humor has also been used to make fun of the way people look or act. Humor in these situations can very easily cause people to be offended and upset at what is being said.

our interaction with each other is about meeting in person while engaging in conversations

When social media first came out in 1997, people became more reliant on the sense of "connections" through using social media. As time passed by, more media platforms were introduced to the public, only resulting in more daily usage and dependences. While social media is a tool for us to connect better with each other, numerous functions were added later to the point of redundancy. Besides simply sending text messages and images to the recipient, daily news, sporting events, music, podcast, commodities, personal events are now part of the platform as well. While we are indulging in this sense of "connection," there is numerous evidence pointing to various harmful effects of using social media. To have a better understanding of the impact of media platform has on us, I designed a website that serves as a medium to both inform the reader and allows everyone to share their opinions in the blog sections below.

Many people argue against the correlation between ADHD and screen time/media. The two issues pose a lot of questions themselves. Both ADHD and screen time includes numerous variables that can affect outcome and symptoms.

Excessive screen use can cause distractions for people with or without ADHD and can interfere with important parts of life. Studies show that children who grow up attached to screened devices show more signs of ADHD than others.

Even I, though angered by the jokes, still watched the show. I began to think back at other older shows that I enjoyed watching and compared them to current television shows. This then sparked my interest in how humor has changed in television shows.

For example, many comedians would make racially insensitive jokes, and people would laugh at them.

In today’s society, humor is usually taken very seriously and can often be seen as offensive in certain situations.

Humor is a very important part of television. However, humor in television has changed over the years.

Dear Teenagers,

The smartphone: a small portable texting, talking, tweeting, gaming, and streaming box. The first smartphone, the iPhone, was brought to the public in 2007, could only be purchased through AT&T, and only contained Apple produced apps. Today, the general public often can be found staring down at their screens, or with one up to their ear. Furthermore, the use of smartphones is not limited to one specific age group. In fact, according to DMR, last year approximately 85.8 million used iPhones in the United States alone, and 78% of teenagers in the United States owned iPhones. In a paper from the journal Computers in Human Behavior v92, addiction is defined as a state of mental dependency on something. This definition can be connected back to the constant use of smartphones in everyday life. A recent CNN article included a survey for readers to test their level of iPhone addiction, where 66% of the UK participants scored highly enough to have severe anxiety without access to their cell phones.
