Social Media Influence

Social media is not just about connecting with friends and family, it's also a powerful tool that can influence our thoughts, feelings, and behaviors.

How Social Media Works

Social media platforms use algorithms to personalize the content we see. This means that we are more likely to see content that aligns with our interests and beliefs.

This can create a sense of community and belonging, but it can also lead to us becoming more polarized in our views.
