The thing that I love about social media sites like Tumblr is this idea that once you have enough followers, enough notoriety on the internet, your opinion, your view on life is so important that you feel the need to tell everyone what you think about everything. It seems they stop learning, gleaning, feeling, attempting to understand any other point of view. Or perhaps that’s the mindset you have to have in order to become popular. I was just reading one blog that had a good set of posts and I was like “Oh Cool. Gonna go click Follow” and then it got all bashy, elitist and stupid and I was like “Heck no techno.”
I will be the first to say that I am bashy sometimes (just to mormons and stupid customers) but I feel like I don’t feel the need to trash everything that is popular or that is for “less educated” people (I enjoy things like LOTR, Game Of Thrones, TV in general, etc, despite it’s eliteist white rich christian points of view… and I’m a college educated gay man).
I think we all just need to realize that we are human and like different things, and that’s okay. But we are all human, all intelligent, albeit in different ways.
And yes, I’m having one of these evenings again. Haha. Goodbye followers!
