The phenomena of social media is something with which I struggle. Friends and relations gathering ‘hundreds of followers’ and everyone posting their likes and the entire gamut of their food choices for the day.
And the begging to like this or that. Yes, begging. Not a suggestion, or please. Just the harsh reality of a ‘like’ because a ‘like’ brings marketing/merchandising/notoriety. Walking past the Episcopal Church in the Village, they have a “like us on facebook” request in the same window as the church info. Struck me as misplaced. Walked by it again the other day, and the same discomfort was still there. What are we becoming?
