The impacts of social media on democratic discourses and the relationship between
how social networks as Twitter has turned into a political messenger, was a theme of
debate on these days. Previously, during elections, politicians used to produce
campaigns with the purpose of convincing voters with their speech and publicities.
Nowadays, it is Twitter and their users which persuade people’s ballots.
TO BEGIN WITH, Had it not been for TV news, which were often politicized and
communicated only some of the truths, people probably would believe in them and
would not change the channel at the moment that political advertisements appeared.
Although Twitter is characterized for embodying a lot of diverse true facts and
regarding injustices that happen around the world, there is nothing that confirms or
verifies the information.
Needless to say that, through the last years, freedom of speech in social media has
severely increased. The user’s participation from diverse ages had been in the sights
of the politicians through their big impact. In fact, only by participating on this social
network is when it earns reach. Apart from that, statesmen had found in this network
an effective method of imposing “political advertising” like a new system for the
election campaign.
In brief, Twitter is a good method for expressing ideas and values. But, this resource
promotes rebels humans for taking seriously everything posted in it, and people with
power use it as a profit. All in all, I think that these websites, for political persons, are
not more than a public publicity to dominate and control the majority of users in the
site. By far, the diffusion of the proposals and ideas are in one click away to be a
massive future complication.
