The Term 'Social Media User'


Instagram's decision to hide likes is applaudable w.r.t. Social Media. When an Egg or an A** starts breaking Social Media Records further projected by MSM, then certain concerns indeed ensue regarding Recipients', Content & Evolution itself. And further is anticipated that All Social Media Accounts would be Authenticated Verified reflecting the User's Country of Origin too for the Reasons explicated in my Earlier Blog.

Albeit I am not that Extrovert, so why be on 'Social Media' OR Technically, am I even a Part of this Term (At an Individual Level)? As I use some Digital Platforms principally for Publishing My Original Content (Poetries / E-Books / Long Poems / Blogs etc.), so technically, I ain't a 'Social Media User' BUT a 'Self Publisher' who uses few Digital Platforms for Self Publishing Original Content / Materials which could be considered as good as Publishing Paperback.

Watching from Random YouTube Videos to leafing through selfsame platforms, bifurcated Materials into Two Segments:
     First:
·       Knowledgeable; that unfolds how much Research,         Efforts & Time were put into those Videos or Contents   that Illumine(d) us too in terms of Specific Knowledge;
·        Original OR Creative;

     Second:
·        Shared Selfies OR Pictures.
·       Conspiracy theories that cannot ascertain conclusions;
          ·        Selfsame Contents;
          ·        Unnecessarily Roasting of Individuals;
          ·         Innumerous Reviewers;
·        Unending MISUSE of Victimhood vide Victim Card;
·        Distorting Facts. Engraving Fictions. Concocting History;

THEREFORE, at an Individual Level, the term 'Social Media Users' should be only Restricted for those Who PRINCIPALLY Chat or Interact Online, Exchange Views, Build Connections for Both Professional or Personal Purposes OR those who Amplify OR use any platform in accordance with Part Second mentioned above. The rest are Self Publishers in accordance with Part First OR Para 2 as elucidated herein above.
