In case many of you are wondering why so much of social media has degenerated into a collection of emotionally charged political tirades, the algorithms typically elevate posts based on user engagement, such as what a controversial, dramatic statement or accusation might incur.

This formula makes sense from a business standpoint because highlighting posts that demand attention creates a user experience that ensures you’re getting bombarded with plenty of ads, but it also creates an artificial, exaggerated sense of turmoil and division that’s capable of instigating a kind of social panic, similar to how news stations do.

It will often appear that everybody is becoming increasingly neurotic, delusional, and unstable, because it’s all you see online, despite stemming from a severe minority of people. It’s important to remember though, that these posts receive attention and provoke scrutiny precisely because they’re outliers, not because they represent everyone everywhere.

Photo by the amazing Rose-Mary Danielis find more of her works on her website rosemarydanielis.com

This photograph is so good the way the light falls feels otherworldly and the focus in your artwork only amplifiers that. I aspire to one day be an as good photographer as you Rose-Mary Danielis I am both moved and inspired by you.
