    We are able to see the architecture - the structural patterns - of each kind of mind-control regime. This can help us recognize precursors - signs that such a future is coming our way. Dystopian pr...

    During the Cold War the United States did a lot of secret testing and ran numerous classified operations. One of the things they tested was mind control, and not necessarily on willing participants. No wonder the documents of the tests were ordered destroyed

    With mental health issues becoming more prevalent in today's society. One has to wonder if it might be linked to the ever growing social media world we live in. With many studies speculating that social media might be the driving force behind our mental health pandemic.

    I personally do think that social media does play a roll in today's mental health pandemic, whether the impact is big or small. Mental health is something I believe to be very important & I wish everyone took it more seriously.

    I agree with Ash. As a race, humans tend to emulate and learn from each other, and has been proven by examining cultures and societies. With social media, anybody can "learn" behaviors, thoughts, or even actions from anybody. With this in mind, what do you think will happen to future generations on social media if they were, for example, consistently exposed (and as a result desensitized) to something like violence?

    This is a great topic and a great find, social media has been directly linked to depression.

    Sadly this world has truly become run by social media and the input of people we have never, and will never, meet. The importance a "like" or "comment" has now definitely leads to declining mental health statuses. Some people are so based on the likes that their entire world would crumble. Companies pay people purely based on their likes and follower count and the power they hold over their viewers.

    Mental health is a really big deal, especially nowadays. Our predecessors commonly pushed down or ignored their mental health issues, but it's even worse for people today due to social media and other platforms. People today are becoming more mindful of social issues such as mental health and I think that's a really big deal.

    I also think social media plays a big part in mental health issues in todays society.

    For 3 or more hours day over 40% of girls and 20% of boys. The socials that are popular would be twitter, snapchat, Instagram, and Facebook.

    I believe there might be a link between mental health problems and social media especially the impact it has on some peoples lives

    Social media has really impacted adolescents and young adults in many ways. Mental health problems have sprung because of social media. Social media has its positives but it has made a lot of people see themselves in a bad light and view themselves as imperfect when in real life they are perfect.

    this article is an interesting one to say the least. may people are affected by social media but young adults are the most affected. this article shows how young minds are most affected by these media outlets.

    I would definitely agree with the article as it claims the correlation between time spent on social media and the symptoms of anxiety and depression. I likes how they referenced how abstaining from it can result in higher levels of happiness.

    To travel the highways and roads is a right but only if done safe and correctly while following all laws. This article will explain why and how a person can have those rights taken away if abused but how they are their rights as well.

    This text covers how academic publishers sell highly expensive books without risking the chance of a weaker demand because these textbooks are mandatory. New additions are being released constantly to prevent students from buying used and cheaper books.

    It is extremely messed up to charge such high prices for information that the older edition that came out before it had. When purchasing these so called "NEW" textbooks that looks so much alike and sound pretty much the same. The only difference would be the cover, publishing date, etc. Yes I get that that's pretty much how business works but still, if students can get the same information else where, why force them to buy such high priced books?

    I think we can all relate to this article. It's sometimes mind boggling on how much some of our texts cost even when they are used. It's a business and they need to make money and they do it very well since we have no choice but to buy these books to further our education.

    College courses require a text book and the suppliers have a hay day with it. They mark up the books because students have no choice but to buy them. It is a never ending income for them because they can update the info so often.
  • aus2134481 on 04 Sep 17
     
    It is so bad, when the book is probably made for a few bucks and then turned around a marked up to 150 dollars. Good find.
