“Is Ramadan Some New TikTok Challenge?”: 47 Times Dumb TikTok Users Embarrassed Themselves (New Pics)
Back in 2014, studies have suggested that prolonged social media use has led to society’s intellectual decline. It was a time when Facebook and Twitter were the main platforms that people spent a large chunk of their time on.
These days, we have sites like TikTok that have captured the attention of users of all ages. And as you’re about to see in the following screenshots, it appears that the research from 12 years ago still holds true today.
Fair warning: these posts may make your brain hurt. However, do enjoy the free laughs that they bring.

People like this will eat the most godless food combos just to avoid eating one extra gram of sugar/fat and they hit you with "Nohting tastes as good as skinny feels 🤪🤪". Like DUH, you were 13 when you ate truly tasty food for the last time.

More studies have shown that social media may contribute to a person’s intellectual deterioration. According to Stafford Global, critical thinking, for one, has taken a massive hit. And one reason for this is the “Echo Chamber Effect.”

“These self-reinforcing informational bubbles function on a straightforward yet potent principle: social media platforms emphasize engagement, presenting users with content similar to what they have previously engaged with,” an excerpt from the piece reads.

Then, there is instant gratification. Social media provides immediate satisfaction through each notification of likes, comments, and shares. As Stafford Global points out, it stimulates dopamine release, leading the brain to favor immediate rewards and ultimately reducing the ability to engage deeply.
“Studies indicate that continuously scrolling through bite-sized content trains the brain to seek immediate rewards, making it increasingly difficult to concentrate on more complex tasks.”

Given the echo chambers and misinformation on social media, it doesn’t help that many platforms target young people. In fact, Instagram spent $390 million of its 2021 annual marketing budget on digital ads targeting teens.
Kids On TikTok Self-Diagnosing With Pareidolia, Thinking It's A Mental Illness
I stumbled upon this video of everyone treating this phenomenon as something people rarely have, almost treating it like a mental disorder, trying to figure out if everything is okay with them. I just thought it was silly and decided to share.
So sad to see so many kids suffering from pattern recognition.

Responsible social media use is more than necessary. In a column for The Dallas Morning News, experts Harris Eye, Andy Keller, Sandi Chapman, and Ian McRae pointed out the importance of ensuring that children have opportunities to develop social relationships outside of these platforms.
“Social media isn't a passing trend, nor is it reasonable to expect most people to opt out. We need to understand the influences that are at play and take responsibility for our own behavior and time spent online,” an excerpt from the piece reads.

This TikTok Account Is Posting A Fake Story To Advertise Its Stupid Product, Which Got Millions Of Views. The Comments Are All Falling For It
The images in the slideshow are all fake and AI-generated. None of the images are related to each other and have been taken from Google randomly. I scrolled for minutes and found no comments calling out suspicion, just praising this fake story.
The comments were probably moderated, that's why there were no negative ones

TikTok Comments Are Crazy
Someone Posted On TikTok About How Things Like School And Work Can Be Hard If You Have Autism
Someone else commented, "You don't have autism," and the pink person basically just called the commenter dumb for saying that. Then the conversation happened.
Ah yes, we all know REAL autistic people are not on TikTok, won’t ever hold real jobs, were totally born from mothers on Tylenol or whatever painkiller, and are secretly spies implanted by the Fae. /sarcasm (not sarcasm now, there’s a good song on Youtube called Changeling by ‘Lydia the Bard’, autistic broskis might enjoy it)
