Has social media or an experience on a platform changed you?

I am starting to see a change in my behavior. The way I think is also changing. First 3 positives from the use of social media.
1. I learned young people under 25 are smarter, more polite than I once thought. They have unique ideas and can have a deep conversation about anything.
2. I have spoken to people around the world and learned so much from them.
3. I have started a few extremely meaningful and deep relationships with people from social media.

A few of the negatives and I am just being honest.
1. I am disappointed with the lack of class that I see in some people.
2. I have learned that fake people come in all shapes sizes and cross all demographics.
3. I have learned that some people have forgotten basic human courtesies. The moral compass and fabric of our cultures are eroding.

Please share with me your thoughts. Have a great day and thank you for reading this post.

I have mainly learned that the "fake" category doesn't make much sense on here. To me it's not important whether a person on here is "fake" or not. I consider SW, and similar platforms, to be theaters, and that's what makes them interesting. When I see a stage play I don't think "Hey this guy is fake, he isn't really Hamlet!".

@helenS First thank you for taking the time to respond. Your opinion is unique however I do not agree. You took a great deal of time to set up your profile. You explained things about yourself that are personal. Why put in the effort to not be genuine and sincere? Honestly if someone is looking at it as theater I would respect them more if they stated it up front. That is just how I feel and what I think. That is just how I feel and what I think I hope you have a great day.
