Sometimes I wonder If social media is a gift Or a curse. People are spending hours staring at the screens On their phones or computers While having all this information shoved in their face That is organized in a way to make them keep scrolling. Quantity over quality is the name of the game. Who cares how accurate the information is? We are all slaves to the algorithm. Political commentary channels Farming outrage for clicks, Turning people against one another For that sweet ad revenue. News sources constantly bombarding people With all the terrible events going on in the world. All this negative media is really overwhelming. It eventually numbs you to everything And that is what they want. They want you to be numb as you mindlessly scroll While you continue wasting hours of your life Reacting to things beyond your control And feeling powerless to change any of it. I hate to sound like a crazy old man, But I do wonder if social media is starting to turn people into zombies. People
