Social media is not the cause. There are so many problems that young people are helpless to do anything about. Congress’s desire to restrict and censor internet access for minors has to be more impactful than social media itself.
I guess we should say that it’s an “intensifier”. If you get bullied at school, it no longer stays at school. If there’s gossip or someone does something embarrassing it’s no longer forgotten, but quickly plastered all over the Internet. I graduated high school in 2004, so I didn’t have to deal with any of this.
