More Plato and less Instagram

Keep

We are already having two lives, the virtual one and the real one. I want to say that there is an existence on the networks, with a catalog on Instagram, and then an existence of a classic pedestrian, which is what we have all been, until three times ago, before happiness was valued in selfies. A world of good judgment would dictate that virtual life is born from a replica of reality, but according to unfortunate thanks to technology, the life of a passerby has to achieve similarity with the lives of instagramers, who move in the ether of the world. fantasy of portraitists with filters.

It seems a low percentage to me, because Instagram is an Eden of sexual bikinis where slenderness is exercised by law and the ugly have no place.
