Your perception has a huge impact on your reality. If you get into heated political arguments on Facebook a lot, the news feed might assume youre interested in political posts and show you more, tempting you to argue even more. You might see more negative posts that drag you down because supportive people interact with a post and drive it up. And lets not forget the manipulative effect of advertising. Not all of this means Facebook is evil, of course. But it does mean that you have to understand that your feed is an illusion. Its easy to get yourself down because everyone on Facebook seems happy, or to feel like an imposter because everyone else seems to have their lives in order. For better or worse, Facebook is a big part of how most of us perceive our friends and familys lives, which puts it in a unique position to skew our perceptions. Even if its not intentional.
