Instagram in particular seems designed from the ground up to make teenagers want to kill themselves. remember imagining that everyone else was having a great time while you were sad and feeling broken? we've built tools to give you photographic proof that everyone actually is having a great time, without you.

people like to call me a paranoiac or luddite but I haven't found a single person who cut themselves out of social media entirely or almost entirely and was unhappier as a result, nor someone who knows someone who was

Antifa Turkeesian posted:I think it’s relatively uncontroversial to argue that some of the absolute rise in mental health diagnoses has to do with the overall decline in economic stability and worsening outcomes for the broad majority of Americans since the 1990s, plus perhaps the inescapable cultural rot that comes with the breakdown of the neoliberal consensus (alongside the fallout of its 40-year supremacy) and the ascendency of eliminationist conservatism, which drives things like mass shootings and the infiltration of law enforcement by white nationalists. Yeah it was a little reductive of me to imply it's ONLY caused by social media but there is absolutely a rise in mental health problems for young people that's impossible not to see, even with possible changes in self-reporting

so gab apparently forked mastodons codebase recently and just replaced every instance of “mastodon.social” with “gab”. in retaliation every mastodon mobile app has blocked connecting to gab, this has caused a massive inundation of 1 star reviews from confused olds. lmao

It's just sexual frustration dude.. Really tho. That guy is a ultra hosed up NEET in Turkey that has done this before, and will do it again. However "civilized" and "compassionate" you can be as a person, there are really some circumstances that make your blood boil. To the point of personally trying to contact Erdogan to show that trooper what Midnight Express was all about.

Incels are 100% like that guy you knew in school who failed every test and laughed about it by saying that it was obvious that he would fail because he didn’t study. Except instead of laughing they’re killing people.

pookel posted:I assume someone who was unhappier that way would just return to social media, though? maybe but it's easy to track because anybody who cuts themselves off from social media tells everybody they're doing so, and maybe 10% of the reason is necessity also there'd be more people sharing posts from nihilism dot facebook about how they're a scorpio introvert who tried giving up social media but nobody irl liked their memes in word form
