Why i heart my media

I don’t love media.
I think they are necessary.
Necessary to connect with others, to spread awareness, to educate, to hold people accountable.

Holding people accountable has been a prominent matter over the past few years.
Many ¨Karens¨ have been exposed on social media, racists and rapists have been identified because of the media. I think this is quite a good thing, as it usually has a positive impact for those affected. Some people say that our generation has ¨gone soft¨ or that we ¨cant take a joke¨. I just think that people can’t get away with things as easily anymore. I think that is necessary.
