Six Word Story:
Conformity- the price paid for acceptance.
About This Six Word Story:
I haven’t shared a six word story in quite a while so I thought I would share this one today. It randomly came to me as I was scrolling through social media the other day. I find myself spending less and less time on other platforms apart from WordPress. There was something irritating me about most social media platforms and it finally struck me. It’s the fact that social media pushes uniformity to an incredibly unhealthy extent. I mean, personally I think any amount of uniformity sucks but the levels on SM are crazy. Anything that deviates even slightly from their norm (not even just norms but from the audiences specific norms that only they are used to) is instantly attacked.
And most people who are “big” on social media like influencers etc are so fake. They all have a very specific look, style, way of speaking, content etc. And that’s kind of the only real way to grow your audience or get the algorithm to push your content.
Anyway, that’s my rant for today lol. I just needed to whine.
