Social Media isn't technology?
Oh I hate this argument.
With an election year next year, politics is about to get shoe horned into everything with the "(insert subject) is politics" is justification.
I think most people think of technology as scientific based rather than social media trends and events.
That’s only if you live in the US though….the rest of the world doesn’t care that much for your local politics….so it won’t be “shoehorned” into all posts as there are internet users outside the USA….gasp
Non American Internet users likely talk American politics just as much as Americans. Even if it is just to criticize Americans
I wouldn't call the possibly intentional destruction of a social media infrastructure "social media trends and events."
