I personally think that the holocaust wouldn’t happen today because of the way the world is now, and the fact that people wouldn’t allow this to happen (to an extent). Because to be completely honest slavery and human abuse still happens till this day in other third world countries, not in huge developed countries like the USA, Canada, Europe, etc. People, being people, either won’t inform other people that can probably help with the issue, and maybe the issue itself may to be too minor for the US or anywhere else to do something about it. It all depends on the extent of what people are doing.

If this could happen again, how would social media react?

If the Holocaust could happen again, social media would bring it into relevance a lot. Such as posting screenshots of new reports, making memes, and stating their opinion on the Holocaust. Some people might even take it as a big joke and make jokes about it. While others might take it into a serious matter and make post to share thoughts on it. Even sending condolences to families.

If this could happen again, how would social media stop it?

If this could happen again, social media could not stop it until somebody speaks up and stands out. Social media would only give it the hype for a few days and die off. Social media only gets things out there until somebody does something about it. Social media is just a way to spread information to the public so it can be changed. We can’t change something unless we do something to change it. It can’t change itself through silent

For example, the school shootings. It have been around for a while People were aware that things like this is happening. Somebody stood up until a group of teens came out to spread their hurt and pain. They put it on social media but didn’t stop there they went to the streets to protest. To make sure that the voices are heard. They are getting closer and closer to making a difference. Social media isn’t a person, you can’t stop something just by posting it on social media and expecting it to change. You have to do something about it to make it change!

No I do not think a situation like the Holocaust will happen again, or at least not on a higher scale. There’s more communication now and technology has obviously evolved since the times of the Holocaust. Back then people may have been taken by surprise due to lack of information or didn’t believe it was a serious problem so they didn’t bother paying it any attention. Thus showing the result of the mass slaughtering of Jews and a few others.

Now however due to social media and our technological advancements information spreads a lot faster. But people interpret information very different some people may take it as a joke and not think it’s serious whereas others may see it as a serious problem but not know what to do. It would only really take one person to stand up due to the fact it could serious

If the holocaust were to happen again what how would social media help?	Social media could help by raising awareness. For example if at least one person posts something it could have a snowball effect and reach everyone if they really cared and reposted the original post. Social media has the power to spread just about anything whether it be real or not in a matter of seconds. It would play a key role in communication but that’s about it. Social media couldn’t stop a holocaust or any other type of terrible event from happening but it could make sure that enough people know about it to stop it.

Social media would take it as a joke honestly. All serious matters get joked about. They make memes, screenshot it and repost it.

Question: If this could happen again, how would social media better of worsen the situation?

Answer: Social Media could better the situation by the many benefits it brings. Social Media give people awareness by providing information about the situation. People can use social media to find ways on how to prevent of act upon the situation at hand. Also, Social media allows to use worldwide communication to help others in need. That’s how social media can make a possible holocaust situation impossible.

Social Media could worsen the situations with the multiple consequences it comes with. People tend to use social media to project negative comments, which could harm others in more ways than one. Social Media makes people lazy and inactive, which prevents them from taking action in this situation. And Social Media could influence people to go to the side of opposition that’s against the less dominant side. That’s how Social Media could worsen the situation by how it could be a bad influence to people with negative comments, bias, and false information.

Question: If this could happen again, how would social media make a difference?

Answer:

I really think social media cannot make a difference because if the events of the holocaust took place. The first reason is that on social media, many people tend to not take events seriously when they take place. Many people on social media make jokes or idiotic comments toward the events. Sometimes these comments tend to overshadow the good comments of people wanting to take a stand.

Another reason why social media would not make difference if an event like the holocaust took place is the rise of fake news. For example, when fake news are presented on social media it tends to take away from the real actual events in the world.  Social media cannot make a difference if events like the holocaust took place again.

If this could happen again, how would social media have an impact?

If there was something like the Holocaust again and social media was involved I think it could help, but tremendously. Everyone has a voice, but not everyone will use their voice. In a situation like such people will be scared and those that are probably won’t run to social media, because they don’t want to see what’s going on or be a part of it period.

I also think that there would be a handful of people that would speak up and have some action behind their words. It could lead to riots and protests but with riots that’s not helping, because it’s just causing more destruction. The problem is I believe a lot of people would speak up, but there would be no action behind their words.

If this could happen again, how would social media….Take charge to change it?

I think social media wouldn’t do much to change except spread awareness of the situation. The people on social that are activist and the people that go out of their way to help would be starting donations and signing petition or doing whatever they can to help but the problem is that’s not a lot of people on social media that’s only a small group of people while some of the people that are famous celebrities or anybody usually just post a picture related to the situation the saying something like “OMG why did this happen!! #prayforthem” etcetera then almost forget about it the next picture they post.

If this could happen again, how would social media… React?

People would have their own option. Some might believe it’s really happening, some might not believe it. Everyone reacts in a certain way. For instance I wouldn’t believe it because everything they put on media is not true. You just wake up one day and the holocaust is happening i wouldn’t believe it. The media over does things to make the story more interesting.

If the holocaust could happen again, how would social media react? If the Holocaust were to happen again social media would blow up with posts left and right. There would be a new post every second about the problem. People would be asking “How could this happen?” or “How can we stop this?” Social Media would bring awareness to something like the holocaust.

But how could we stop something like the holocaust? We could stop another holocaust by making our voices heard. Once someone brings attention to a problem people can’t ignore it and would have to do something about it. If another holocaust were to happen we would have to have the help of the military to stop it. I don’t think another holocaust could happen but the future is unknown.

This this could happen again, social media would hurt more than help. I believe that there is always two sides to one issue. The side that social media would see, that would hurt would join in because they “agree” with what’s going on. I believe that the other said that supposedly would help would just bring awareness to the issue and not do anything about it. I think that social media would hurt more then help, because at the end of the day the military and the government leaders will know what is goijg on and where gonna believe we know.

Question: If this could happen again, how would social media affect the situation?

Social media would allow more people to be informed about it. But even though they’re informed most of them would probably not do much and just keep talking about. While the few who do try something will probably try taking it straight to the government and force them to do something about it. Another thing people would do if no one was doing anything would be revolt.

This could also lead to fake news misinforming people about the actual situation. And also making it seem like joke which would then be abandoned by most people. Their also could be a chance that people support it and try to exclaim the ‘good points’ about it.

If this could happen again, how would social media change people?

If this were to happen, I think the minds of the people would go both ways & I don’t think it could stop until a new & approved generation(s) come. I feel like it would be a for or against moment or maybe a fight or flight moment. I believe that if it did happen, it wouldn’t just turn a switch or a camera towards the chaos but it could possibly turn people as to which side they ae fighting for or exactly what they believe.

But that goes back to beliefs & the hatred of what someone thinks or believes. So in conclusion, it will always be somewhat of a time loop until more generations come upon Earth. Speaking of people, I think the next generation will get a better view & come out more peacefully about the things that happen around the world than just turning attention and focus to violence.

If this could happen again, how would social media respond?

I think people on social media would respond with how things need to change and how this shouldn’t be happening but do nothing to change it. I believe social media is all talk with no action. Social media would help in a way though to bring attention to the subject but nothing much else. In order for social media to really help things we need people who can come to action and back up what they’re saying and do something to make the change that they are speaking of. Many people on social media are not willing to do so regardless because the events that are occurring are not happening to them.

If this could happen again, how would social media help stop it?

People would post pictures showing the depths of the situation, and once people started to see how serious it is, they’ll start to make a little commotion. If the government has not yet started to do something, the people will start rioting and protesting. A Holocaust is something serious, so I think that most people would be moral enough to recognize that it’s wrong, so they’ll join in and either help protest or move the message along. If most people in a country are protesting, the government will have to respond.

Social media would respond like crazy. People would be double sided about this topic. You would have trolls and people would not know what they are talking about. But social would affect people’s thoughts. But social media would have no power to stop this. You have people who are clueless and are absent minded.

Assignment title: Social Media Holocaust response

I feel as though social media would talk about it for a while, people would repost it, share it with each other, but they wouldn’t really act, or take action.

People would be coerced by their peers and they’d start feeling remorse like “OMG” “This is so bad” “#stopthehate”. But there probably wouldn’t be anybody doing anything. Nobody would really go to the government and demand action, they’d feel as though their reposting would encourage government to take action, but that’s not always the case. It’d just be one of the “Hot New Topics” for a while and then something else like a dog burping bubbles or the tide pod challenge would shift the attention of the people. Similar to the slaves that were being traded in Libya, people were reposting the pictures and videos and saying “#prayforlibya” but nobody really did anything about it. Therefore I conclude that social media would spread awareness for any new form of genocide but it wouldn’t take that much part is dissipating it, if nobody took action.
