Three very clear uses of social media that has evolved through humans connecting with each other

  1. Through “friends I’ve never met” you find out about world events well before the media
  2. Through “friends I’ve never met” that are mistreated by someone, there are “enemies that I could hurt” from using my connections bringing justice and ethics into the hands of everyone.
  3. Through “me and my army” sweeping under the carpet becomes an impossibility and major action can be taken with minimal effort of each individual

It feels like a new era of consciousness!
