Researching the psychological damage of not having anonymity on facebook and how much it keeps ruining people's lives.
I hold personal grudges against people who pry into people's lives. Some people call this doxxing, but when it comes to relatives, or, people from your past: it could possibly ruin your future life. Look at how count dankula was treated for example. What kind of psychological impact does that have on us all? What does it mean if we are not living in this perfect bubble they want us to all have? - Let's face it, no one is perfect; no one can keep this up 24/7. We all have ups and downs in life. We all have different life challenges; different work schedules; different tastes. We are individuals, but facebook wants groups and social exclusion for some people.
I could not find one damn Psychological article, to base these social and interpersonal dimensions on facebook with. It is as though, they are avoiding really talking about the impact this has on people.
All those community bonds you create; all the people you have discussions with; it's eliminated because someone always tries to find out about you. Then when they do, they hold grudges: prevent you from getting a job because you do not have the same views as that person. Another example is, they actually prevent parents from parenting. The other is, children are bullied even more as their identity is exposed. Why does Mark Zuckberg force us to use our names?
It is the abhorrent, turbulent nature to pry on the private life of many is incidous. At first it becomes an addiction, but what does it do to people's psychological wellbeing?
For adults, Facebook can become like a rat laying dead with swarms of parasites eating away at the corpse. For example, you could be escaping a bully from your old school days. - Yes, you can block them, providing you remember to do so. If you do not remember to block these types of people, imagine the damage they could do, from just, gossiping about your profile. (happened to me, way too many times as the succubus' on facebook, sucked me dry like a chicken bone. Their greasy fingers just smouldered all over the place as they continued to do it to others).
Your name is out there on facebook. I believe this is worse for the people around Europe at the moment, as they are feeling incredibly insecure about their identity. I mean, Europe as a continent and all that surronds it.
There is nothing worse than finding out someone made a story about you; the consquence to this is you may, loose your job because you have been character assasinated. The political climate has not helped and people's views are changing, but not fast enough. These people want to stereotype people, they want to keep you as a victim, to make themselves feel better. I say break the chain. Stop using Facebook because they can't win and have their own way. They cannot force us into depression.
If, you thought about all of those things already, but, you still hold dear to facebook, then guess what? - You are heading for depression according to Dr Kate Raynes-Goldie, Psy.org 2018 , as you try to maintain a perfect persona on facebook:
Your perfect self
"The key to understanding social media depression lies in the social norm that has emerged around how we manage Facebook's context collapse in a way that is acceptable in all contexts. That social norm is being your perfect self. And the consequence of that is we are all performing our perfect selves, thus all making each other feel depressed and inadequate"
You end up wanting the perfect girlfriend/boyfriend; we all know that is not possible. You end up wanting the perfect job with great friends, but then, you find out they use a different social site to facebook, is it a relief? - No, because people are still addicted and still aim for perfection.
Especially now they are not going to have their precious Europe to keep people in the mould. They won't have people bowing down to their preconcieved ideologies and people are beginning to see the wood from the trees, about facebook and all the dirty low down rotten things it does to people's lives.
Why would I want to give up on perfection?
As an individual free thinker, I wanted to avoid feeling depressed and ruining my own future, because of what other people have done to me. I decided, I am going to trust in people again, face value, rather than seeing a profile on a site and judging someone based on the way I think they should conduct themselves. See it is simple, I am not going to be invited to a group thing or force myself to be friends with people, just because I want to post a picture and make myself look at it in years gone by and get depressed about it. I am winning. I do not have to have other people looking into my own personal life and then being able to judge me based on some opinion I had 5 year's ago, because I sure as heck do not feel the same way I do now.
It prevents people from maturing and evolving into a new consept and a new way of thinking. If you are uncomfortable with your lifestyle, then you can changing it. Humans adapt and evolve Mr Zuckberg and they perhaps do not need you reinforcing the homewreckers.
You know if people want to contact you, they will find a way to do so. I believe some people are meant to be in your life now, other's are meant to not be there for a reason and this is the way things are. If you can't live around people you click with Facebook connected you and then, unfortunately, it did not give us the opportunity to have adult discussions. Formulate opinions and be okay with our own values and beliefs to back those friends, we have formed. Other people, have the confidence to find their own way.
What am I most worried about?
The narcassism facebook has created in people means, they are so insecure in themselves, perhaps, they will not be able to form good bonds and friendships with people. I also predict, people won't be able to have good relationships and if they do break-up; even though the person has blocked you, their friends, or family, can still see you and talk about you. It seems like the journey to free thinking has collapsed due to facebook. The homewreckers and the controllers love to sing and dance on it.
Our freedoms to speak our minds have been actually been exposed and then prohibited on facebook. I do not think some of these psychologists would dare see the psychological impact on such things. Why? - When we all know, we have already breeched the point of change in many parts of the world.
Now forcing the silence is unbearable. The actual mere thought of having people punish you psychologically for being you, is worse than having your parents discipline you. I just imagine the corporal punishment days in school, the change over and the teachers still play psychological mind games, just to get you to form in line. This is what facebook has become.
As I conclude my rant about facebook, I really did not think I would feel worse than I already do for being me. I really did not think people could cause so much psychological pain; I ask if they realise the consquences of their actions?
I do believe people are using facebook as a tool to push of power and control. It is not for the best outcome. It is for the unacceptance of the one's who do not fit the perfect criteria. It forces people to create depression and a blanket of fear.
Europe is now changing and a lot of people want to psychologically torture people into being something they are not. People being devauled makes me believe in Article 13 being a waste of time.
Freedom of expression is something quite serious and I do believe, people have had enough of the doxxing; enough of people being controlling: they just want to be able to express themselves, without being judged, persecuted, or, psychologically damaged for their thoughts and feelings. Enough is enough. This is effecting families. This is really affecting livelihoods, it is time to end the torture.
