The Forwarding Epidemic

"The Forwarding Epidemic: How Social Media is Killing Originality"

In today's digital age, originality is gasping for air, suffocated by the relentless onslaught of forwards. The attention span of humans has shrunk to the size of a tweet, forcing us to settle for quick fixes and copy-paste solutions. Critical thinking has become a distant memory, replaced by mindless sharing and liking.

The art of original research, experimentation, and experience is dying a slow death. Years of hard work and dedication are being reduced to mere forwards, stripping creators of their credit and authenticity. It's astonishing how effortlessly people can claim ownership of others' work, perpetuating a culture of intellectual laziness.

This plague of forwarding is a virus, silently destroying creativity, skills, and IQ. It's a trap that enslaves us, leading to loneliness and boredom at a psychological level. But I refuse to surrender to this epidemic.

Whether it's painting, drawing, blogging, vlogging, or exploring cooking and philosophy, I'll continue to nurture my originality. I'll resist the temptation of effortless shares and likes, choosing instead to invest time and effort into creating something genuine.

Let's join forces to revive originality, to value the sweat and blood that goes into creating something unique. Let's break free from the shackles of forwarding and embrace the beauty of authentic expression.

Originality is not dead yet. Let's keep it alive.
