We sometimes join different communities and groups that have shared interests on social media and be trapped in an online echo chamber without realising it.]]> 2023-02-09 22:54:53 UTC https://padlet.com/natania_koh_xuan_2024/nb7c34hhsnvu5zc2/wish/2475719101 natania_koh_xuan_2024 https://padlet.com/natania_koh_xuan_2024/nb7c34hhsnvu5zc2/wish/2475719236 are a special type of echo chamber that is found online.

Examples
Echo chambers for when they all said to do the tradition 
Groupthink for the guy when he felt forced to agree

helpless
- nobody wants to help him
guilty
- can’t help his juniors

emotion contagion 
- other camp organisers told him that they also went through it and that they grew closer because of it
- gaslighting him into it

groupthink
- doesn’t want to disagree with them
- goes along with the bad idea 

- to prevent gaslighting and emotional manipulation
- we are self-aware and can identify if its happening to us
 - differ from whats right and wrong
- so we wont be oblivious
- so we dont end up like them

Social media lowered his self esteem even more and made him insecure about his appearance.
Trapped in an echo chamber/filter bubble
Frustrated with himself, lashed out on his friend
Afraid 
We need to be aware so that this will not happen to us.

Keith is obsessed over getting slim and going for intensive workouts because he sees on social media how those diets/workouts make people have abs and better looking figures. He was being influenced by what he sees on social media and regardless of how intense or unhealthy the workouts are, he continued with it because of the 


Feelings of the Character 
- he’s in denial. people notice something is wrong but because he’s in denial he feels that no one understands him and so he’s unhappy about it all.
- he’s insecure when he sees people gaining weight and goes on further extremes. 

Examples of “”
- his entire feed is about working out, diets, and seeing people with lean figures because he’s obsessed with those things. (echo chambers/filter bubbles)
- seeing repetitive and similar posts on dieting and workout pictures will influence him to do the same

Why is it important for us to be aware of these situations?
- We ourselves will not be gymbros 
- We will not be easily influenced by strangers on the internet

Sufian wants to propose an idea but the group does not agree with his idea and does not want to ruin the tradition. And he feels that he should not be a burden and should just go with the groups idea. His staff sergeant also agreed with the group and he is forced to go with their idea 

Identify the feelings of Sufian:
- he feels forced
- he feels that his feelings are neglected

Identify echo chambers etc.:
- There is an echo chamber here as they say its a tradition and do not want to change the tradition. He says “i better not cause any trouble” and replies with “no worries”. He comes off as agreeing to their plan but inside his heart and soul, he does not like their idea. He is sad to convey his idea and his objection as he does not want to ruin the “harmony” of the group. The group agrees with the tradition and he thinks that his point is invalid as everyone supports the tradition
- He does not want to be hated or disliked by the group because he proposed another idea.

Why is it important for us to be aware of these situations?
- everyone has freedom of speech and should have the right to speak up about something. Echo chambers may disregard someone’s feelings as they feel that they are not allowed to speak up about their own thoughts]]> 2023-02-10 00:40:25 UTC https://padlet.com/natania_koh_xuan_2024/nb7c34hhsnvu5zc2/wish/2475789130 https://padlet.com/natania_koh_xuan_2024/nb7c34hhsnvu5zc2/wish/2475791850 1.

2 and 3. Social media can be toxic since it makes you feel insecure about yourself. Keith felt insecure and tried to lose weight since he saw posts of other people being fit. After following unhealthy diets that are promoted in social media he ends up gaining weight again. He also rudely replied to his friend who commented on his post to defend himself. 

4. Social media giving hoax about fitness. Once you open up fitness topics in social media, you become stuck in the algorithm. So these posts will continuously be advertised to you. 

5. So that you can avoid being too obsessed with social standards.
