I don't think so, it brought some issues to mainstream attention that otherwise would be left to rot for another decade (or even longer). I'd argue that's worth a lot and not necessarily offset into the negative by the other things social media has done

    What issues could only be address with social media but not normal methods of getting across news?

    It's ruined generations, Gen Z is fucked,only caring about internet clout, whatever the younger generation is called is even more fucked, their entirer lives documented and uploaded to the internet by their shitty parents, including their most embarrassing moments. Boomers are being brain washed too.

    Like, fuck. Just think about all the misinformation and conspiracies that have been able to thrive online because of social media. It's a big part of why society is going down the pooper, imo.

    The only positive really is it kills our bordem, but we had to sacrifice our dopamine receptors.

    Hey man, I'm no clinical psychologist, but your comment gives off flags that you may be depressed. Please remember that we love you and the world will be just fine since the collapsing climate will kill everyone slowly and everything we do doesn't matter.
