One of the major criticisms of social media is that it breeds insecurity and anxiety. People on Instagram and Facebook often post about the best part of their lives. However, that’s usually all that is posted. When millions of people are only posting the best bits of their lives, it can distort reality. We often end up comparing ourselves to other people on the app. The comparison can lower self-esteem, create insecurities, and negatively affect self-confidence. The same things can happen when celebrities we idolize only post pictures that have been photoshopped, or they’ve had surgery to improve features. Kim Kardashian and her family are guilty of routinely doing both these things. Although everyone can do with their bodies what they want to, influencers like the Kardashians should educate their fans more about plastic surgery since so many of their followers want to be like them.
