There have been many times that I have heard (and heard myself say) “I saw it on a TikTok.” Nowadays, an entire generation is informed through the social networks. Goodbye to the traditional media. If it is not on networks it does not exist.
But to what extent can what we consume online be true? Considering TikTok a reliable source of information is a Utopia. There is no mechanism that regulates the veracity of content posted on networks. Anyone with a mobile phone can call themselves walking encyclopedia.
So, saying that we have seen it on a TikTok is not synonymous with owning The absolute truth. We often get carried away by the immediacy and attraction of the viral on social media, but it is important to remember that the truth is a fragile treasure in a world full of unverified information. Living in a time where we are all producers and consumers of content, The responsibility of discerning between reality and fiction falls on us. So, before blindly trusting what we “saw on a TikTok”, we have to remember that the truth often requires a extra effort to be unraveled in a sea of unconfirmed opinions and statements.
