Social Media is a cancer that encourages outrage, cancel culture, and people looking to be victims and/or special snowflakes.
Facebook at least is a plague that gives platform to trolls with "alternative news" who prey on people who are too lazy or cheap to pay for regular media. The amount of people, especially older generation, who get into anti-vax, pro-russia and similar crazyness is staggering.
It's dangerous and should have been regulated much better a long time ago, but money rulez.

I've been spending less and less time on Social Media. I hardly use Facebook, I don't have a Twitter account, no Instagram account, etc. I use Tik Tok but only to watch funny videos/ stand-up comedy.
While Social Media can facilitate great discussions, being able to catch up with friends you wouldn't catch up with otherwise, etc., there's just too much vitriol and hatred and, apart of them, it can be a complete time waster.
Only if you also believe that the people who accuse most of canceling & claiming victimhood do it as much if not more often, and that Trump alone has provided examples for each of your grievances.
