Or are people getting stupider on social media, if that is indeed, possible, haha.
I’ve written about a couple of things that happened over the weekend, on here. The stupidity just honestly never seemed to end.
I totally was empathetic and understood about people being upset. What I didn’t understand was the whole saying something stupid, even if you’re upset and then refusing to admit that you probably shouldn’t have said it. Instead of being an adult, being all “Well, my feelings are hurt”.
Like you know how, when you’re upset and you say something stupid. It use to be that you’d apoligise, but these days, people will lash out and then their little social media minions will sit there and attack with you. For example, I follow a lot of different animal rescues accounts, wombats being one of them. So this account I follow, was upset that they couldn’t find this wombat and this person, I felt was just pointing out that it is all “doom and gloom”. Because, well it is.
Well, the account holder had a go and then all these other people, had a go. Calling the person a “troll” and other things that stupid people call others. I popped in and said “Well, I think they were agreeing with you”. How doom and gloom the situation was, because, well it is.
Are you seeing these things also?
Have you seen The movie Idiocracy? I swear it’s becoming a documentary! Sigh…

Put it on your list, but maybe wait a bit because it might make you cry instead of laugh at this point!

I try to stick with my blogging community and a few fb friends. In the past, I used twitter for poetry, but I haven’t been in the mood for a while. Thus, I haven’t seen much idiocy…
