What are two positive attributes of social media?

One good thing about social media is that it allows people to stay in touch with people who have moved away. In today's society, people move for careers, relationships, and other reasons. Social media allows one to stay in touch via chat and pictures with people they might not have seen in years. They may even arrange meetings. Social media sites such as Facebook, Twitter, and Vk are some of the most used sites in the word because people crave contact with each other even if they have not seen each other in years.  


Another good thing about social media is that it alerts people to causes. Gofundme is a crowdsourcing website that allows people to ask for donations for things like medical bills and college funding. Social media also calls attention to government corruption by the people experiencing it firsthand if they wish to report it on social media. Social media gives everyone a voice and makes it nearly impossible to silence anyone.
