MOMO and other social media hoaxes

definitely think you could get PTSD or something similar from spending too much time in the darker parts of the internet. Even thinking about what is out there gives me a small burst of anxiety.

the children of late capitalism are anhedonic. they only feel alive when sexting each other and doing the momo challenge. they also watch isis videos and say ya yeet.

Dumb kids. They should be more like my generation and only feel alive when battered on wanker craft ale and reminiscing about shit cartoons from the 80s.

i remember when bluetooth was big and people would send around that video of the chechen soldier. before that it was graphic footage of the jumpers on 9/11. some people who were our age then have young uns now, perhaps they are projecting their trauma of the unfiltered days of the internet onto their children. but tbh gen z definitely seems better equipped to handle this stuff, based on what i know of how my nieces and nephews interact with tech. yes sir i think we should be educating parents more than the kids.

Yes, let nursey know! :woman_health_worker::skull_and_crossbones::ghost:

Nothing Scary Door about that.

momo, theres mo limit… to the stupidity of the internet

I wonder if parents, headteachers and people on Facebook realise they are complicit in traumatising children when they spread this sort of misinformation/hoaxes, even though they feel they are ‘helping’ people by making others aware of it.
