Blog #2


Something that I really enjoyed was the Social Image. Social media has created a new milestone for mankind. Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, ect has changed communicating in incredible ways. President Donald Trump uses twitter to let the public know what is going on. The President used to this on a radio or television. Social media sites are very common for millennials to be part of and to take action in. The idea behind social media to to post things about your life on the internet for friends and family to see. However, people usually post only the best parts about them. People post things to make themselves look better, the good parts about their lives, and a false image of who they are.  People don't usually post the boring parts of their life, the sad parts, or their worst photos. Some people do, but not the majority of users. Some people even edit themselves to not look like their real life selves. People post selfies with lots of filters to have smoother skin, whiter teeth, brighter eyes, and some change facial features. Social media has allowed us to create a false image of ourselves to appeal to more people. We post what makes us look our best and leave out the boring and sad parts.
