Social Mediocrity

These days whenever my phone beeps ad shows that there is a facebook or whatsapp
notification more than often I get disgusted. If you are surprised why then I will tell you the
reason , in short, from being funny and Amusing social networking has
become opinionated, mediocre, agenda centric, propagandas and religiously profane.
If you analyze the bulk of the posts generated on the social networking these days you may
feel either of two feelings. A war being fought, with childish demeanor or a peace being
brought with a malicious notion. To go further even political campaigns are launched on
facebook. But lets not get too serious here, even when these days there is a deliberate
attempt on social media to make everything too serious. We are talking social media right,
so lets talk with some spunk!
Lets start with category of messages. First will be religiously provoking. As hilarious
example, write om namah shivaya, or jai mata di or jai bajrang bali or amen or allah
or wahe guru or amen god or jesus crist and so on. These messages usually end with a
threatening of outcast and several years of bad luck if you not write as said above. For the
first part of that line, myself being a Hindu feels insulted as my gods should not be treated
in such cheap way .For the latter part every other religion also should get there deserving
respect. The point I am trying to draw is that everyone who believes in their religion should
get furious on this type of idiotic depiction of their religious beliefs. First they present gods
as commodities online, then try branding of them in special categories and then they are
scrutinizing the authenticity of our beliefs based on how much we abide with them. These
types of messages are real heresy.
The second category is drawing sympathy. We usually see messages that have various
pictures of people suffering from illness or have cured some illness. These messages also
follow with a threat of suffering from bad luck. By all standards this is the most disgusting
form of messages i.e, selling someones misery for own benefit. These messages also come
in another way that some has won over there disease and is asking for likes. That can be
accepted but what I dont understand that how same people can get cured from same
disease after every 3 to 6 months. .

The third category is patriotically provoking. When on a message they are asking to write
jai hind or bharat mata ki jai thats okk. But following message of jisne desh ka namak
khaya ho or jo deshbhakt ho is trying to question our loyalty towards nation based on
the judgment of the morons who sent the message. Moreover I dont want to say much

about this one as few months earlier the whole country was stormed on the issue of
Bharat mata ki Jay. Only want to say that my patriotism is my right and my personal way
of saluting my motherland and no one should or can dictate that In what way I should spell
it.

The fourth category is making groups to propagate a particular notion or to discard a

particular notion. In this special category you find the messages like, Kya modi aazadi ke
bad ke sabse acche pm hai or Rahul ya Modi or Congress or BJP or JDU, Congress or
BJP or government ko aap kam ke kitne number denge and so on. The beauty of this
messages are that they are so idiotic in their own sense that I really wonder who sends
them. But these messages are directed to judge the opinion of the masses or to fabricate the
opinion of the masses. This category also contains messages explaining a political parties
achievement and how this party is the best by all means!
I am ending the previous sentence with an exclamation because I cant draw a smiley or
lolllzzzz here like social networks. Many times the group who makes the message viral gets
very enraged when someone questions his liking. In another way these messages are
directed to make groups of their belief and corner everyone else. Recently a new edition is
added to these messages which explain how reservation is justified or unjustified for every
class. What intrigues me is that every class plays a victim when talking about this.
Once a government official was explaining, how these messages which look mere idiotic are
part of a bigger conspiracy. According to him there are various groups who are sending
these messages 24x7 just to judge and predict that which type of messages can provoke the
sentiments of the people and if needed how a rumor could be sold as a truth through social
networks.

Apart from these there are various other stupidity catered on the social networks these
days but I am not mentioning them as they are free from agendas and even being idiotic are
harmless both from personal and social point of view. But the messages I am mentioning in
previous paragraphs are really targeted social vibes which spread like infection. Moreover
ease of access has made social networks available to everyone, including the jackasses who
are clueless what they are doing online and the morons who can manipulate them just by
messages. What I am referring in above line need not be explained as anyone reading this
will get the essence and for the people who doesnt, well its no use trying. They will either
be confused or judgmental even after explaining.
