Non-conformism and Hateful Scorn are different things. Going
through my facebook feed I noticed a few statuses/pictures scorning Mothers Day
posts. Got me wondering, what is acceptable to these uber cool, sarcastic
judges sitting on their self appointed e-social high grounds?
These are commonly scorned upon:
- Selfies
- Baby Pictures
- Engagement/Wedding Pictures
- Vacation Pictures
- Food Made By Me Pictures
- Political Views
- Location Check-ins
- Game requests
Today, Mothers Day posts were mocked, saying: "show her some
real love, not on facebook." Wonder why these people think that if I put up a
status for my mom, it is exhaustive for the amount of love I have for her and
not exclusive of it.
What is the kind of content that they would approve of? It
is interesting to think about what they really would talk about on their social
networking profiles if not about what others have posted. Facebook/Twitter/Blogger
and the likes have created this group of hateful people that mistake needless
scorn for sarcasm.
It is a little sad to think that the first thought that
comes to their head seeing a Mother’s Day post is that it is insincere. If you are busy looking down upon everything, you miss all the good stuff. Look up, be happy.
