We are all being subconsciously controlled and worked on by a super online “higher power,” whilst we sculpt, mould and eventually end up birthing our very own desired online personas.
Each day billions of people use social media to connect and share their lives with complete strangers all over the world who come together to form an online community. But what we don't realise is that social media is slowly but surely eating away a small section of our brains — so what use to be thoughts, creativity and wit has dissolved and been replaced with artificial generic ideas put out there by a "higher power." Our thoughts are not our own anymore. We live in fear that one day we'll slip up or do the wrong thing online and be ostracised.
You must keep your thoughts to yourself and pretend you're like them. That is until one day the persona you created online starts to slip up, the cracks start to show bits of personality starts to seep in through your tweets someone notices you're not like everyone else, your secret comes out.
You start to say and do things differently from everyone else. It's ok at first you think you can maybe start a movement or a revolution but you later realise you're on your own and the others who think like you are too frightened and ashamed to speak out. You are chased away eventually.
Later you think maybe you can start a small civilisation elsewhere or maybe you can go back to you hometown Facebook, your first love. You may even decide to start blogging, the pay is crap but you'll survive.
You have to do something, anything to take your mind off the fact that you are no longer welcome online.
