I remember as a kid, we used to throw block parties. I new my neighbors. Now? This is rare

We will take your children if you teach them wrongthink. Do not worry

Yup

I would blame stranger danger for a lot of this.

nah

...

we actually had an older lady in our neighborhood who volunteered to take care of peoples kids and everyone liked her

Wow I'm convinced.

@Deleted User I grew up in a small town. It still has changed. Not nearly as bad as a city, but still.

It. Contributes

People are also just more insular generally

Tech has made the world closer but the local more distant

But it's mainly cost of living versus wages

Social media replaced actual social interaction

And tech

i also grew in a small town, it became a 4 million city

Ruben takes August off

What city?

not in the us

Great idea but not many can do that

Ah

we need Abolish Social Media Act 2020

i'm moderate, this is the only solution

Cost of living is further enhanced by individualization of expenses. Extended families under one roof existed for a reason

Social media could be a fad

Never know

Social media isn't inherently the issue. But the way the populars ones so far have been structured have been disastrous.

We only have 10 years of data

Your friends are now those from distant lands and your neighbors now strangers. It hasn't made society any more or less connected, it just changed where those connections are made.

except social media will just be on the dark web. which would actually be a good thing. you have my support.

Tumblr was pretty much anti-communication, anti-correction, pro-echo chamber by its very design.

Your overseas friends aren't going to watch your kids, or help watch your neighborhood

i can predict social media networks popularity will collapse

and the dependance will disapear

is allready happening

yea.. even normies must get bored of social media one day.. r-right ?

I agree

i remember my older sister she used to be tied to the land line

if snapchat can become popular, anything can happen

Social media will collapse as people as w hole realize it's hollow

Superficial
