Social media is a tool and platform for people to share their opinions, insights, experiences and opinions with each other.Nowadays, there are all kinds of social media Apps in our daily lives, such as Twitter, Instagram, Facebook and Blogger.In today’s blog, I will critically think about social media.If you are interested in this topic, keep reading.

We have to admit that social media has brought us a lot of convenience in our lives.The most obvious thing is that it makes it easier for people to contact others. For example ,people can learn about the lives of their relatives and friends from afar through things posted on social media, so people do not have to worry about the remoteness of distance.Besides, because of the public and open nature of social media, people can make new friends through it.Moreover, social media is beneficial to expand our minds. Because everyone can freely express and share their ideas on social platforms, which benefits us to open up our minds while reading.Thus, the positive impact of social media dose exist.

However, social media has only good results? Of course not, it also has various negative effects.For example, there is a lot of deceit in social media.People are increasingly using the Internet as a way to show themselves, and now there are more and more ways of self-representation. For example, people publish beautiful selfies online to show their charm, publish their own articles on the Internet to present their erudite knowledge ,and post their own travel video clip to show their attitude to living seriously.However, for those who like to show themselves ,they always just show their good side in order to give others a good impress.In this situation, it is very difficult to correctly recognize a person in such a unfair situation.So it is dangerous for innocent people, because they cannot distinguish between truth and falsehood and always trust someone easily. It is common for swindlers to cheat money through social media.Besides, social media may encroach on our rights. Because the majority of us like to publish our life on it.For instance, the violation of the right to portraits.Because some people steal photos that others post on social media  without their consent.

In conclusion ,while we enjoy the convenience of social media ,we cannot ignore its negative impact.I hope everyone has a rational view of social media.If you have any other ideas, welcome to leave comments below.By the way, there is video about social media’s effects, welcome to appreciate.
