Does anyone else feels like the internet is like another planet or nation?

[BlackDiBiase]

The internet has its own culture, celebrities, movies, language, and currency.

Sometimes I feel like the internet is it’s own world and that it should be treated as such.

Other times I feel like the internet is a facet of real life.

I’m in the company of those that see the internet as a separate entity. However sometimes these worlds collide and shyt can get confusing.

I can see the world becoming like that Bruce Willis flick surrogate in like 50 years

dope flick

The world on the internet i see and hear is what i don't see outside and that would be

1.. Every nikka and bytch are CEOs of some business according to their social media page

2.. Nobody has less than $100,000 in their account

3.. Everybody is a 9 and 10 and fukking somebody who is 9 and a 10

4.. Almost 80% of dudes and chicks on youtube got the answer on how to pick up a woman or man but for some reason they have no one

5..nikkas online got the answers for the black community, but for some reason they not in the hood helping out at least 1 black individual

I just take 70% of shyt online as a joke

Other 30% in terms of getting out of debt or fixing things around the house is helpful

I ee we can all agree that the internet has gone past its original use as a information source.

As far as you’re other points it seems many people use their online persona to make up for what they don’t have in real life.

This is true

Its a very weird entity with it’s own marketplaces, black market,subcultures, reference and pop culture.

It’s a world with many little worlds and cultures that some cant access or understand.

You can manipulate people,spread agendas or change your life off the internet.

I’m already hip. There’s this weird way of doing things now where you can’t neglect the new reality that the internet gives us yet you still have to maintain your real life which makes things very difficult for many people. It’s like a lot of people (myself included) can’t really tell the boundaries between the internet and real life.

The internet is very real and impacts the world in a real way.... but at the same time, you can just turn it off at anytime... thats the best part.

Ion think it’s as simple as you can turn it off any more breh. I think you just have to manage how far you let it influence and impact your life it’s just a weird ass time to be alive.

it is it’s own thing. What really drives me is how they (google) actually download the internet. That’s a fukk ton of info. You could make your own virtual world with that information

Don’t worry they are lol.

I was thinking about something similar a few days ago.

If you think back, your "group" was pretty isolated from other groups and folks more or less got along.

Then came a group that doesn't look like you and friction is introduced.

Before the internet, we were pretty integrated and there was more potential tension/friction, but at least you could go into the sanity of your own home and away from the outside world.

With the internet though, you're interacting with strangers/other groups in your own home and bringing that potential friction into it. As another breh stated, people "blow up" facts about themselves online. It's almost like they're presenting another world that doesn't coincide with reality.

That said, there's useful information and folks who can help you out on it too that are being genuine.

It's really no difference between it and watching a ton of TV. The potential danger/friction is and has always been the interactions at it's worst.

Yeah i agree. It’s like the internet is in a state of constant conflict with the various interests of individuals. You can’t just put anything out there without someone getting passed off. However this makes all attention kinda neutral.
