Sin caer en los tópicos faciluchos de esta era en la que estamos, tan tecnológica y fastuosa, es innegable que las redes sociales han irrumpido con fuerza en nuestros quehaceres y nuestras rutinas diarias. No solo han entrado intensamente, sino que han cambiado muchos paradigmas. Y en este contexto de la evolución de la comunicación global, también son innegables las bondades de estas plataformas, que nos conectan y nos hacen compartir.
Pero más allá de estas cosas bonitas, de lo romántico de Internet y los vínculos interpersonales, como siempre llegamos nosotros para desvirtuar y desmerecer. Para convertir flores en retamos espinosos y transformar la virtud en vicio. Poco hace falta para que destrocemos las cosas y las reduzcamos en lacra. Y con «poco» me refiero a tiempo y a razones. Desde luego nuestra especialidad es la de aquel Rey Midas pero en reversa. Cosa que tocamos, cosa que se va directamente a la basura. Que ya no sirve, que se deformó hasta el más absoluto despropósito.
Ya ni nos basta con ser corruptibles. Sino que también somos los que corrompen. Escupimos podredumbre por doquier, como si fuéramos aspersores de cloaca. Nuestra enorme habilidad para crear cosas maravillosas la compensamos con proezas malogradas y descompuestas. Somos nuestro propio antagonista. El burro que tira de nuestro carro y nuestra propia piedra que rompe el eje. Y mientras más evolucionamos, menos lo acabamos haciendo. Como un círculo vicioso de eventos desafortunados que ni nos molestamos en entender.
La desinformación y las redes sociales
Tanto desvirtuamos las cosas y tan mal entendemos nuestros propios preceptos, que después de siglos creando un arte, porque lo es, como el periodismo, hoy nos abocamos a las redes como única fuente veraz y sincera.
Vergüenza debería darnos la falta de criterio, la falta de pensamiento crítico y, por Dios, la falta de ortografía.
Cuando hay más diarios que nunca, más periódicos que en ninguna parte, nos centramos en lo que dice el usuario anonimo403_95 porque lo dice con contundencia. Cuando tenemos la libertad de la información gratuita, opciones ideológicas por todas partes, periódicos que abiertamente adoptan una postura y los que adoptan la contraria, juicios imparciales e independientes, y todo cuanto necesitaríamos si quisiéramos, nos vamos al contenido abstracto del pajarito que gorjea o la efe gigante de color azul.
Lo que nos falta es cultura porque somos unos ignorantes. Leer unos cuantos títulos de la misma noticia es demasiado esfuerzo para nuestro cerebro acomodado y sedentario. Necesitamos la información rápida y fácil. La que nos da un sujeto desde su casa contrastada consigo mismo y por la gracia de su vecino. La que nos engaña con esas alertas baratas del título fácil. La que directamente insulta nuestra inteligencia.
Somos tan desvirtuadores, que cuando creamos algo increíble para unirnos y comunicarnos, lo usamos de estercolero. Y aquellos que se esfuerzan en tener credibilidad y puntos de vista, los ignoramos por completo. Porque ignorar es nuestro deporte.
La moda de la cancelación, lo que nos faltaba
Y es que no solo desconocemos, sino que alardeamos de ello. No hay nada peor que un imbécil con iniciativa o un ignorante que se jacta de su naturaleza.
De pronto se puso de moda el juicio popular de antaño. De la época de los escarnios públicos, del apedreamiento en la plaza del pueblo. Hoy todos somos abogados ilustres, jueces del estado y fiscales majaderos. Hoy cualquiera puede sentarse cómodamente ante un ordenador y escupir las mayores sandeces desde la impunidad del anonimato. Impunidad que no es tal, y menos mal.
De repente podemos organizarnos en masa para señalar al culpable, lanzarle palos indiscriminados en forma de mensajes y decidir por cualquiera el futuro de su vida y de su reputación. Lo llamamos la moda de la cancelación. Y nos ponemos a cancelar gente como si esto fuera la pizzería: «Oiga, cancele mi pedido que ya no tengo hambre».
Nuestra imagen y nuestro honor dependen ahora de los caprichos de la muchedumbre. De cómo se despierta alguno por la mañana y cómo le apetece agitar al rebaño. Luego nos molestamos si nos llaman borregos, pero vaya, que ¿dónde va Vicente? Donde va la gente.
Y al final resulta que estas herramientas tan fantásticas que nos conectaban a todos, nos vuelven a unos contra otros. Si no se repitiera la historia… si tan siquiera la conociéramos. Pero eso es pedir demasiado.
La confusión entre ser fan y dueño y señor
No estamos preparados para nada. Nos entregan las llaves del reino y rompemos la cerradura.
Ahora tenemos en nuestras manos la posibilidad de conectarnos con aquellas figuras públicas que nos interesan. Podemos hablarles, seguirles e interactuar con cierta intimidad. Pero no siendo suficiente, nos metemos en sus vidas. Decidimos por ellos hasta lo que tienen que comer, lo que tienen que vestir y cómo tienen que solucionar sus asuntos personales. Porque sí, porque somos los dioses del Olimpo, porque somos hijos de Titanes y nuestra palabra es absoluta e incuestionable. Nos atribuimos derechos que ni sabemos describir. Somos unos tontainas que apalean un teclado frente a una pantalla creyendo cambiar el mundo, cambiar la gente. Pero a nosotros que no nos miren, porque no estamos mal.
Es evidente que cualquier personaje público se debe a sus seguidores. Que se exponen al juicio masivo y a la crónica de revista. Pero qué nos importan las cosas cuando nos gusta cómo canta o cómo actúa en las telenovelas. Nos creemos con el derecho de señalar con el dedo acusador como si fuéramos el ejemplo divino de la doctrina universal. Como si estuviéramos beatificados y hubiéramos ascendido a la iluminación espiritual.
Y después de esparcir sabiduría de plástico en nuestras queridas redes sociales, nos miramos al espejo y no vemos absolutamente nada.
Las redes sociales y el hablar sin saber nada
Hablar sin saber es nuestra mejor habilidad. No tenemos ni idea, pero nos damos el lujo de comentarlo todo. Siempre actuaríamos mejor que el otro si estuviéramos en sus zapatos, porque nuestra vida es la panacea, la gloria bendita y bienaventurada.
Cualquier asunto ajeno que se comente en las redes sociales nos lo tomamos como algo personal. Como si afectase nuestra digestión o las horas de sueño que acumulamos. Nos hicimos muñequitos de papel mojado tan frágiles como el cristal, pero sin lo bonito ni lo brillante, claro.
Cuanto menos sabemos, más hablamos. Y no nos da vergüenza que sea evidente. Nos levantamos abanderados de quién sabe qué chorrada y lanzamos al aire conceptos que ni pronunciamos bien. Escupimos ignorancia por todas partes. Pero eso no nos detiene, porque nadie nos conoce detrás de nuestro nickname, así que da igual.
Hemos llevado a las redes sociales a enredarse antisocialmente. Las transformamos en un tanque de pirañas en el que nos autodestruimos virtualmente. Lanzando dagas voladoras en forma de palabras y reduciendo nuestra estructura de comunidad a un sistema básico de comentarios y megustas.
Tan buena era la idea que la llevamos al desastre en menos que gorjea el dichoso parajito. Como siempre, desvirtuamos y adulteramos. Corrompemos y deformamos. Somos como un virus indestructible que lucha por su propio exterminio, izando la bandera de la estupidez cada vez más alto, como si eso fuera a prevalecer.

Almost all of the things you assert is astonishingly legitimate and that makes me wonder why I hadn’t looked at this in this light before.

I have learned new things as a result of your website. One other thing I want to say is newer computer system operating systems have a tendency to allow additional memory to get used, but they as well demand more memory simply to operate. If your computer could not handle more memory along with the newest program requires that ram increase, it can be the time to shop for a new Laptop or computer. Thanks

You can also purchase the international travel insurance policy online by using the credit card. Everything you should do is to enter your travel specifics and you can see the plans side-by-side. Simply find the program that suits your finances and needs and then use your credit card to buy the idea. Travel insurance on the internet is a good way to check for a trustworthy company with regard to international travel cover. Thanks for expressing your ideas.

Thanks for your post. I would like to say that the health insurance agent also works well with the benefit of the coordinators of any group insurance cover. The health insurance agent is given an index of benefits sought by somebody or a group coordinator. Exactly what a broker really does is seek out individuals or maybe coordinators which best fit those wants. Then he reveals his referrals and if both sides agree, the broker formulates a binding agreement between the 2 parties.

Thanks for helping me to get new strategies about desktops. I also hold the belief that one of the best ways to keep your notebook computer in leading condition is a hard plastic case, and also shell, that suits over the top of the computer. These types of protective gear usually are model targeted since they are made to fit perfectly on the natural covering. You can buy all of them directly from owner, or from third party places if they are for your mobile computer, however its not all laptop can have a covering on the market. Yet again, thanks for your recommendations.

The subsequent time I learn a weblog, I hope that it doesnt disappoint me as a lot as this one. I imply, I do know it was my option to read, however I really thought youd have one thing attention-grabbing to say. All I hear is a bunch of whining about one thing that you could possibly fix in case you werent too busy on the lookout for attention.
3 noviembre, 2023 a las 01:00
There is noticeably a bundle to find out about this. I assume you made certain nice factors in options also.

Thanks for the something totally new you have uncovered in your short article. One thing I’d prefer to comment on is that FSBO connections are built with time. By launching yourself to owners the first end of the week their FSBO can be announced, before the masses start calling on Wednesday, you make a good connection. By sending them equipment, educational materials, free accounts, and forms, you become an ally. By subtracting a personal desire for them and also their problem, you create a solid network that, on most occasions, pays off if the owners decide to go with a representative they know and also trust – preferably you.
1 noviembre, 2023 a las 17:09
I?d need to verify with you here. Which is not something I normally do! I get pleasure from reading a put up that may make people think. Additionally, thanks for allowing me to comment!

Yet another thing I would like to state is that as an alternative to trying to match all your online degree tutorials on days of the week that you end work (since the majority of people are fatigued when they go back home), try to get most of your sessions on the saturdays and sundays and only a few courses for weekdays, even if it means a little time away from your end of the week. This pays off because on the saturdays and sundays, you will be far more rested in addition to concentrated upon school work. Thanks a lot for the different points I have learned from your blog.

Heya i?m for the first time here. I found this board and I find It truly useful & it helped me out a lot. I hope to give something back and help others like you helped me.

The things i have seen in terms of laptop or computer memory is the fact that there are technical specs such as SDRAM, DDR and so on, that must go with the technical specs of the mother board. If the personal computer’s motherboard is fairly current while there are no operating system issues, upgrading the ram literally normally requires under one hour. It’s among the list of easiest computer system upgrade treatments one can picture. Thanks for expressing your ideas.

Hi there would you mind sharing which blog platform you’re using? I’m going to start my own blog in the near future but I’m having a difficult time deciding between BlogEngine/Wordpress/B2evolution and Drupal.

I would also love to add that if you do not already have an insurance policy or you do not form part of any group insurance, you may well take advantage of seeking aid from a health agent. Self-employed or people who have medical conditions normally seek the help of an health insurance agent. Thanks for your text.
