7. Social Media Loneliness

Other than here, I'm rarely on any social media platforms. And I try to remember this area can be an echo chamber at some point (reenforcing what I want to hear).

Humans are social primates; we need interactions with each other. To me it seems most social media is like consuming empty calories. The more time you spend on social media the more lonely you seem to be. Starved of real nourishing interactions. You just seem to wither away, consumed into some dark vortex you can't escape.

I wouldn't mind so much if these folks would sulk away in some type of D & D alter reality but their actions endanger all of us. They provide perfect breeding ground for COVID, allowing the virus to spread and mutate (into possibly worse forms). Then they bog down our already anemic health-care system exposing our first responders and the rest of us. Sorry, but these folks are dangerous to all of us.
