What is being discussed in the video? Explain your answer.
He deleted social media, especially Instagram for a year, from 2019 to 2020. His job as a photographer really needed the media to do business, but he didn’t care about it and deleted his Instagram account. According to him interaction in cyberspace is very bad and we can ignore the existence of life in the real world. When he lives without social media he feels lonely, because he lost his online friends. But instead he can focus more on his duties, vision and mission of his life, and can interact with his family and people around him directly. Internet can bring us to a wider world and there are many benefits actually, but if you abuse it by just scrolling photos, posting photos, commenting posts, it will only take up time and you lose moments in your real world. Social media like Instagram and Tik Tok only make us addicted and make a habit out of the box. If you don’t delete social media, limit their use, don’t waste your time just comparing yourself to online people we don’t even know. Realize and believe in yourself so that your goals in life can be achieved.
What is the speaker’s main purpose? Explain your answer.
To persuade people to limit their use of social media and not to get carried away with social media and ignore that it lives in the real world with real people and things, not online.

Jordan is a filmmaker, entrepreneur, writer, and photographer in the United States. If in Indonesia he is like Deddy Coburzier, he makes a podcast that provides inspiration and good advice for us.

What is being discussed in the video? Explain your answer.
In the video it explains that social media does not always have a positive impact, but there is also a negative impact, but the felt effects may vary inter-individually. It was based on the observation of the speaker that Millennial America mostly spend their time playing social media. Then the speaker wants to prove it, if he comes out of social media for 30 days will change his life or not? And the answer was yes, in the first week he wasn’t used to it, but starting the second week everything was normal. Then does it slow down the work? He felt that his work was not slightly hampered, because he was released from social media, he could focus more on making videos, content, and time to gather with his family.

Does the speaker put forward valid or strong arguments? How does he/she support the key points? Explain your answer.
In his video he liked the quote from the article that strengthened his opinion about the reason people wanted to get out of social media.

I still use the same article as the previous log, because it is strong enough to support my speech where social media is not a must that everyone should have.
What is being discussed in the video? Explain your answer.
Many people decide to leave social media in real life. This video contains voices from people why leaving social media is so harmless. Broadly speaking, from their point of view, social media is just a useless addiction, fostering addictive behavior that if you get in it’s hard to get out. Just see if in public places, many people choose to play with their cellphones instead of chatting with their surroundings. One of the speakers in the video also agreed, he didn’t like interacting online, because there was no direct feedback and couldn’t tell in more detail about the information he wanted to convey. If you realize, maybe if you look at the information online, you will definitely see it and be interested in discussing it based on the title, right? In fact, if you only see the title, you can get hoax information. Therefore, it is better to interact directly to minimize misunderstandings and indeed you must realize that we live in the real world. Social media is like a tool that can lead us to promote our bad behavior without us realizing it, such as seeking attention, irrational competition, seeking sensations that can trigger the anger of netizens. They realize that they use social media too much and they only realize that it is self-actualization to seek instant happiness, but they do not realize that their time is wasted just playing Instagram or other social media.

The main goal of the speaker is to tell the viewer why people choose not to be trapped in social media, what are the factors that make it possible.

This article helped me develop the point where the negative impact of social media is one of the reasons why we should abandon or limit the use of social media especially the aspect of time and friends.
What is being discussed in the video? Explain your answer.
In the video, the speaker compares how the interaction between humans was in the era before technology existed and when technology had appeared in civilization. Before the existence of technology, humans could only speak directly in the sense without intermediaries like today, namely social media. However, with the advancement of technology, a very real problem arises, namely the level of adaptation of a person. But now people are very adaptable and are considered very proficient in following technological developments, especially in the use of social media. Not many people also use it excessively and seem addictive. Social media can change human habits, from those who like to hear people’s opinions directly, now to commenting on each other on platforms such as Instagram, Twitter, Facebook. If you are already addicted it may be difficult to get rid of this habit, one way is to delete some of the social media applications that are on your cellphone or computer, and start spending time with your family so you don’t feel lonely in the real world.

What is being discussed in the video? Explain your answer.
In the video, Yesi as a speaker tells us why he left social media and decided not to come back there again. One of the reasons is friendship, social media is indeed beneficial for us to find many friends even from across countries and cultures, but friendship on social media is considered shallow and fake, because they only know our lives from our posts or tweets on social media, while in real life? they don’t know how our life and feelings really are. Then the fear of loneliness must arise when we are addicted to social media, such as when there are message notifications from Facebook or Instagram, we must be happy, right? because they feel that there are still people who want to know how we are, but in fact it will worsen when someone has a high level of social anxiety, because they feel that communication by texting is simpler and easier, and when he interacts directly, anxiety will definitely arise, and it’s not good for mental health. The fourth reason is that social media makes him distant and feels like he misses important moments in his life, where he should be able to enjoy them but instead only takes photos and uploads them to social media. And the fifth and final reason why Yesi left social media is interrelated where the decline in social interaction affects people’s productivity levels. Social media can be said as a medium of escape from negative situations in our lives, where we are already hectic, tired, bored with our real lives, then seek temporary pleasure by opening and viewing content on social media. But it can actually kill our social habits, which should be more communicative, productive, and active in social life, instead they get stuck and waste time just for instant pleasure. If you are afraid of losing or straining your relationship with your friends when you leave social media, yes, we have tips, namely intense communication, you can call during special moments, celebrate special days with sweet and meaningful greetings, and contact regularly, don’t just send messages. message because you can’t have a deeper conversation if you just text each other.
What is the speaker’s main purpose? Explain your answer.
The purpose of this speaker is to tell you that there is nothing to lose if you leave social media, instead you can focus more on continuing your dreams in real life without the shadow of life in cyberspace.

This article helped me to develop what are the bad effects caused by social media, especially in the psychological aspect.
What is being discussed in the video? Explain your answer.
Social media is one of the online platforms that can damage our minds and brains. Subconsciously our brain realizes that we are addicted to social media, but our bodies refuse and say that we are not addicted. Using social media a lot of social media can affect the views of our thoughts. In people’s perception, the information contained in social media is information that is very reliable and can be used as a benchmark. Our brains that were originally able to give useful ideas, now can only think about social media. Our mindset begins to change and is not as sharp as before knowing social media. Before there was social media, when there was a problem or discussion, we could immediately talk and solve it by deliberation together, but after there was social media we only relied on social media without any further discussion. Social media is very fun, but without us knowing it can waste our time with useless things. Social media stimulates our brains to believe all information, even what is considered a hoax, we can easily follow it without understanding any deeper. That is proof that we are addicted to social media. The speaker suggested that we limit and get out of social media as much as possible so that we can interact directly with people in our real lives and get to know them better, not only through profiles on social media but also in behavior in real life.
What is the speaker’s main purpose? Explain your answer.
The speaker aims to make us aware that social media does not always have a positive impact, but there are also negative impacts such as damaging our minds and brains, as well as our habits in real life.

https://medium.com/@essabari.khawla/is-social-media-destroying-our-brains-32d3daf74679
This article helped me to develop and strengthen my argument about how social media can corrupt people’s mindsets and can damage our brains thereby inducing bad habits.
What is being discussed in the video? Explain your answer.
Social media can destroy our lives as social beings. Social media is indeed created by humans with the aim of strengthening humanity, it turns out that it only works in cyberspace, not in real life. People have gotten used to communicating over the phone and have gotten rid of the habit of making a conversation or talking face-to-face. Social media indirectly changes us, our habits, not only stimulates our brains to work online. Social media has been around since 1997 where people use it to communicate without the barrier of distance, and that is one of the real goals of social media. But it turned out to be wrong, people are even addicted to social media and find it difficult to get out because they feel that social media is their world and they seem to find their true identity because they are considered to be able to express themselves more optimally. Whereas with social media addiction, their true identity is as social beings who like to interact with people directly, and show that their humanity is lost. They just waste time just looking for a moment of pleasure. Indirectly, social media can also worsen human health, because when you are already busy scrolling timelines, feeds, whatever is on social media, you forget to take a break, and that can damage your body. Social media also cannot promise that all people’s identities are valid and correct. People are competing as if they have to be the best and maintain an image in social media profiles, and that is a very wrong thought. It shows that they have completely lost their humanity. As much as possible you stay be yourself, and realize that you live in the real world.
What is the speaker’s main purpose? Explain your answer.
The speaker aims to tell us that living in this sophisticated era can indeed eliminate our sense of humanity, such as social media which can change the habits of people who previously could interact directly, now they prefer to interact online.

What the speaker’s attitude or tone towards the subject? Does he/she seem to agree or disagree with it? Explain your answer.
Yes, he totally agrees that social media is ruining our lives. Judging from the core of his speech that social media eliminates human humanity into someone who only thirsts for attention and recognition.
Does the speaker put forward valid or strong arguments? How does he/she support the key points? Explain your answer.
Yes, the first is to confirm that social media does exist, he shows a brief history of the early formation of social media from six grades to facebook. Second, he displays a chart from his survey to confirm that people spend most of their time just playing on their cellphones. Lastly, to strengthen his argument about social media changing human thought patterns, habits, and attitudes by including the opinion of one professor at Georgetown University, there are many studies that say that excessive use of cellphones can reduce concentration power in humans.
