Three Reflections in Ecological Contradiction
Dazzling earnings figures and various hidden dangers; the inertia of business development and external pressure.... Social media, regardless of size, may be facing a similar ecological contradiction.
Some time ago, the popular documentary The Social Dilemma explores social media and its effects on society caused by its availability, including impacts on users’ mental health, the shaping role of human civilization. The Social Dilemma is a pun. On the one hand, it is a dilemma brought about by social media. On the other hand, it is a dilemma faced by social media itself.
In some degree, these two aspects of meaning are one body with two sides, and mutual cause and effect. Social media brings a lot of “problems”, which makes it more vulnerable to criticism, and then makes itself fall into the dilemma of runaway users, downward advertising revenue and declining social reputation.
