Oh, Okay, Pretend You Can't Do Anything but Post Stuff

Let me get to the point here. It can be hard to look at yourself from a different point of view, but you should at least know you are part of society. Anyone who is part of a community is part of a society.

Now, take a look at this:



I think the the implied message is that society sucks and causes suicides, and all we can ever do is sit here, post stuff, and be sad about this ghastly truth.
(By the way, it's interesting that society calls itself ugly in the last line... Also, isn't that girl part of society as well?)

Anyway, heads up to whoever made this as well as people who reposted it, in case you didn't know, you are part of society! Obviously, I'm assuming you have interacted with other people at some point in your life. As part of society, I hope you are trying to change these views in addition to posting this. You can compliment people on their appearance, clothing, and intelligence. You can buy less makeup. You can join or start a campaign against bullying. If you see these problems around you, speak out about it, and not just to your friends on social media websites. And hey, if you feel like you're the one that everyone is shaming, tell someone. You yourself can try to change things. I know it's not the easiest thing to do, but how else is anything going to change?

Stop blaming society, everyone. You are part of society. If you blame society, then you are part of that. If it really is society's fault, it is really in a way your fault too. You can't do everything, but you can do something.
