Social media is the place where people stay then they have spare time. Most of the time we can see different kinds of opinions or videos that were shared all over the network, but nowadays those people who are doing bad things are the one who gets a lot of attention that those people who are doing good things, and because of that people are doing wrongdoings even though they know that it isn't good, they're still doing it just to get popular.

Everyone wants to be a fly on the wall, and YouTube lets us do exactly that. And it is very entertaining, if not also sometimes dangerous. But it is the world we live in now.

Indeed, this is how the world works but why do they want to live in a world wherein everyone judged them because they are doing inappropriate even though they know that it is not good but still they are doing it for popularity

@porwest You have a point there. Nowadays if you're popular even if it's good or bad. As long as you did something and you uploaded it on YouTube then you'll earn a money from it. Sometimes people are just doing it just to earn money.

@tech40 Because with that popularity, often times they also make money doing it.

Because publicity is publicity. Be it bad or good publicity, both works the same. People are often curious after all. They want to know about other people's life, despite how uninterested they said they are.

It is. Publicity is publicity but are they okay with that? People are thinking bad about them most of the time

@prinzcy but what if it happens to you? Will you listen to what people said, or you're just going to continue even though there's a lot of bad faith that they're talking about you?

So people should be critical and not just believe in what they see in social media.We hope those culprits vanished soon!

Indeed. Some people are getting misinformed by those people who are doing bad things in public and some kid thinks that it is good

They have a very subtle way of doing it. They're expert on that matter. And bad people have more friends than the ones.

Indeed. Nowadays those people who are doing no good are the one who has a lot of friends than those people who are doing good. Maybe because teenagers think that it is cool if they're friends with those kinds of people

@tech40 Or the people are afraid of them. They force themselves to befriend with them.

Yeah. Social media is a gateway to materialistic world. Just like in he world, you don't get to interact with all good people; you come across a mixture of both. Same with social media.

its interesting. what i think is because people think when someone do right thing is an ordinary action. So, they bored and see that wrong thing is unusual and look interesting.
