There was a friend of mine, who always used to be active in participating discussions & debates with me on various social issues as well as on the topics of how to help the society on behalf ourselves? Recently, when I met him on the chat, he said that he removed his facebook account completely for the reason that he got frustrated to see people commenting on stupid things a lot than at least responding to important posts that are related to social issues which are real worth of spending some time to talk and discuss which helps us to turn in to actions. I sensed his pain as I also belong to the same category who always thought why the people don’t respond to any thing that is important but do on stupid things like ‘you see tones of comments praising a girl on her profile picture. You don’t see the same number of comments on any kind of post that is related to social or a good cause and to prove it, I am the sole example who has been tracking the people’s mindset over facebook since couple of years by my postings.
We don’t have to change our country drastically, any small good action that you do is more than enough. Just think for a while, What if my facebook wall is my country? Just assume for a second without any doubt of why we should compare a country to a facebook? Then think. How many are taking part in an important discussion that someone throws on facebook? How many are really cared to read something about social issues? Out of ‘X’ no of friends, how many really comment on those, if they really read? Do they really care for appreciating someone doing something good on facebook and how many of that kind? Does someone support people who do that, if so how many of these kind? Do they comment every time they see a good post? Don’t you think that there is a responsibility in it unless it’s a contradictory issue? What about women in facebook? What they doing? As far as women, I hardly see few taking part which completely blocks off my mind. How this would make them equally sound like men? I leave this question to them by saying that “Men always did dominate every place because of the weakness that women showed.
If you analyze all these questions and come up with answers, it will lead you a place where it will surely gives a small picture of our present country’s status which is exactly similar to this. In real country, the people do the same, they don’t respond to social issues or participate in good cause and those who do are very rare. They don’t appreciate the people who really working for society and they hardly come out to give their support. They always blame someone who doing good, saying that “here comes our hero to change this world”, but no one comes forming groups where they can discuss like a committee and take actions accordingly for a good cause. Now, it’s an unacceptable answer that, you are too busy on your way to recognize these good causes and sense these issues to participate or give support. There are other kind of people who say that, Facebook is like a funny thing where we just connect our friends to have fun and all the bullshit. Now after seeing the revolutions that facebook and twitter lead in Middle East, I don’t think there is a chance for any stupid to say that social media is just a time waste or funny thing.
Being a facebook as your country, how can you make it a best place to spend or live in is as same as how can you make your country a best place to live in? If you know your job over facebook, it’s exactly the same as your role in the real country. If you know what you are doing over facebook, then it is same as what you doing for your country living in it. That’s what I believe and I don’t say that you should skip fun and only do this. All I am saying is to prioritize what actually we need and what we should to get those needs full filled and for sure it’s a great plat form.
The best and greatest thing that you can do to the welfare of society is “to live your life perfectly”. You don’t have to do a great sacrifice thing like our freedom fighters did. We always have choices to make in every step of our life and that’s the only thing that makes you either as good or bad. Finally, if you are really a good person, then I would remind you the greatest message i.e. “The inaction of good is very dangerous to the country than the actions of the bad”. Now whether you are good or bad is based on your choice, which I leave it for yourself.

Hi bro, I really feel thankful for this article. It is very important for the youth of this nation(country) to think and discuss on various social issues and ill causes happening in the recent times. As Facebook took over the globe it could act as the best transmitter of these discussions. What matters is what you discuss on it...good, bad, fun, etc.,
As said "Any small good action that you do is more than enough", and the rest will be taken care off by the Facebook itself. It is time for us to increase the posts on social issues and ignite the minds of the youth.
I am sure you are doing a great job bro. As expected you might win some false praises, but no doubt you are sure to win all good in the near future. Keep working, we shall support and share....
Good work bro. After all we should blame ourselves, after working for hours people login to FB and look for fun stuff rather for social issues which relaxes them. Some people never tries to comment on good posts rather criticizes or makes fun of those posts. I still don't understand why responds to stupid posts first than some good issues.
Though FB is commercially hit, I still don't find reason why exactly I need to use FB. There are many downsides of FB which ruined its members.
People should know the power of social media even before signing. No one asking to change country/community through social media and its practically impossible too, but if we can help out few people then there will be some justice why exactly we are using social media.
I don't know what to do. Some said i am emotional in this post. Some said that its peoples interest, how can you comment. Some always said from years that, why i feel like Mr. Perfect. Some commented that, i feel like a savior of the world. They commented what they can with out leaving any void. I guess i got more bad comments than good comments for the things that i did, but none dared to tell that i did at least few bad things to deserve this.
I still ashamed most of human race for we believe god and we believe that the only way to reach him is a good path but yet we do our own things and simply pray him. I don't know how it works.
But i cant keep silent, if i keep then they start talking against me. Which would be almost like getting worthless things for all the years of my writings.
Very similar.
