Why the Internet Facilitates Failure

Tweet

I'll keep this short, I could right essays on this, but instead I won't. The internet is marvelous. It allows live to stream from no-where Asia, to no-where South America. Marvels like Wikipedia are an exhibition of the success the internet is capable of. However, the internet is not plagued with knowledge, it is plagued with MySpace. It is plagued with the horrible 'emo'. The archetype that turns anything into a negative, and only find solace, and can't comprehend how narcissistic they are in being so negative. It's a misfire of the horrible, 'You're Unique!' They actually bought into the fact that people cared. Then the diamond slipper cracked, and before you know it, the world isn't worth living in. Ignoring the fact that at least 5.999 billion other people are doing fine, and aren't trying to root out the most minor of issues and cutting their wrists over it, they're right. myLot's indicative of how the internet facilitates this. People know they have to 'grow a pair' in real life (well, a healthy amount do). However, the anonymity facilitates the area for people to whine about everything. They've finally 'grown a pair', but instead they use it to express their unhealthy obsession with failure. Rene Descartes was right.
