Social media can be both helpful and dangerous and its dangers are well known. One of the harmful effects of these platforms is the rush by people to post anything and everything without caring who they might hurt or embarrass. I will never understand this. Is it the likes, or that their posts might start trending? Or is it that they are just addicted to posting?
Last week, someone saw it as necessary to post a video of a woman who was obviously emotionally and psychologically affected by a recent breakup. As she cried uncontrollably, at her most vulnerable, sharing her experience with her mother and others, someone was taping her. That someone then posted her distress on social media.
