Am I the only one who finds that most people on line have stopped communicating in their own words, with their own original thoughts and perspectives?
I am inundated with memes, links, videos, and an endless parade of crap from people who now send these things instead of writing out their own original thoughts.
People are regurgitating things they've seen other places and presenting them as their own. I have seen people called out for posting a meme copied from someone else, and then the guy it was copied from get upset because he wasn't credited for the utterance. What? Really? It was never his to begin with!
As this continues, our society is becoming increasingly easy to control because we're being taught to take the words, views and opinions of others as fact, and posting it as our own.
Does anyone else see where this is going?
