• Our actions on social media, such as sharing positive or negative content, engaging respectfully
or confrontationally, can influence the emotions, perceptions, and reactions of others.
• For instance, posting encouraging messages or comments can create a supportive
online atmosphere, while spreading misinformation or engaging in heated arguments
can contribute to a more divisive and negative online environment.
• Ultimately, our conduct plays a pivotal role in shaping the kind of content we
encounter and the overall tone of the digital space we share with others.

and decisions.

prejudice.
