This girl said some very red-pill truths that is nearly word-for-word what those of us have been saying at TRP for years. Take a look at these gems:
“Social media, especially how I used it, isn’t real [...] It’s a system based on social approval, likes, validation in views, success in followers. It’s perfectly orchestrated self absorbed judgement."
She nailed it! My million-dollar question is what made her see it suddenly today but for years she was blind? Seems pretty obvious that something must have triggered her to see through the delusion and discover the true nature of social media.

Here at TRP, we probably use very little social media, comparatively, but we've all spun plates who are on their phone non-stop seeking validation when we put our foot down on something or hold our ground and maintain frame. I've always noticed that girls use social media to get their feelings boosted when I hold frame and don't cave to their stompiness and brattiness. Are the majority of women's self esteem becoming more fragile in this day and age of social media addiction? What does that mean for men who date these women?
I don't know the answers but I find it possibly the first evidence that women might just be starting to realize for themselves what guys have observed about them for many years (that their facebook or social media addiction is just a drug which they take hits when they need validation or approval) but I'm not holding my breath...
