Twitter, and Instagram has brought so many bad things to this generation.
People should watch their words, pay more attention, and be responsible to
what they are saying in any case.
We expect that anything shared, commented, tweeted, and posted on
social media might be viewed by the world so you should think before you
write it and be extra careful on what will you say because at the end of the
day you should be able to accept the effects of it in the future and face the
consequence for your imprudence. Because in this scenario we should
expect the worst to come like misunderstanding between the publisher and
the reader. What the publisher may mean is differently to what the readers
mean. Second scenario is it will greatly affect your character and lastly it can
cause fear to you and to your family; we dont want this to happen that we
will be afraid to go out and afraid for the safety of our family. Good example
for this is the trending college student girl named Paula Jamie Amalayer
Salvosa become worldwide trending because of her video shouting at a lady
guard assigned in Light Rail Transit Authority Santolan station. People
around her took a video of Paula raising her voice to the lady guard. People
judged Paula because of an abrupt emotions over the LRT situation. After the
incident, Paulas social networking accounts were stormed by other Netizens
- posting rude and emotionally, psychologically destructive comments. The
effect on what happened to Paula had a great impact to her. She did not
attend her school because she is being judge and bullied by the people she
meet in the same way. In my own opinion the root cause of the problem
between Paula and the lady guard is all about misunderstanding, improper
use of words and disrespect with one another. That is why we should always
watch our words and always show respect. This is the only key to understand
each other so that misunderstanding will not occur. And if you have nothing
good to say just keep it to yourself especially if you know many people or the
world will see it. And if it is an important message it is much better to send it
directly to the person concerned because it is more formal, sincere, and
privacy-wise.
Being in a democratic country, freedom of speech, expression and of
the press is a common right that Filipinos are exercising and enjoying. While
everyone should be careful and mindful of what they post or publish online, a
sarcastic opinion on Facebook status and/or other social media platforms
should not be a ground for dismissal of an employee. A mere distaste of the
boss based on his personal preference on statuses or posts of an employee is
not a meritable ground for an employees dismissal. These disagreements
could be kept personal and should be communicated in the right avenues
such as during personal times together outside the work sphere. Not only
this practice of using the right avenues to talk about personal disputes will
