My Body, My Choice

In the 1973, US made abortion legal. And, now the supreme court wants to push a ban of abortion across the entire country. This happening caused more than 300 pro-choice protests . And even though a clear majority of Americans support an abortion, some of the states has already created ban on it (ex. Louisiana - they would charge women with murder if they end their pregenecy)

It’s unimaginable for me that abortion is still considered a murder or is taken away form women who lifes can be at stake. I was especially surprised that a country like the US, which is synonymous with freedom, now struggles with dealing with this matter. In my opinion, it’s inhumane to take away this choice from women and it's even worse to listen to privileged men talking about it. I believe that the key for this “problem” is a proper education about an abortion ( for everybody ) and to finally listen to each other without judgement

    Unfortunately, in the US, like in Poland, the political establishment is to a large extent influenced by religious extremists (in the US the so called evangelicals), and this has led to the Supreme Court being dominated by right-wing conservatists.
    And all this happening at the time when in Europe this fight has been over for half a century.

Brands on Social Media

It’s not hard to notice that with the progress of social media, we’ve started using them in completely different ways, in comparison to the early beginnings. I would say at first, all platforms were for regular people. But nowadays every brand has an YT channel, an account on every social media and I don’t know in my opinion it’s unnecessary. I had so many eye roll moments when I scroll through Twitter and a Polish Netflix account tries so hard to be relatable.  I guess brands started to act like people and people started acting like brands. Influencers with brand deals which come with money are sometimes losing the humane part of their content. So, in that way companies are basing their content on relatability- cause some people like that. I mean I don’t care about what Netflix thinks about Pikachu, I want to know what movies are added next month. Examples:

Is fake news a serious problem in the contemporary world?

I think that fake news is a serious problem. We hear them every single day. They can spread all over the world in a couple of hours or even minutes. In that short amount of time fake news is becoming viral and hard to overcome. That’s way they are so dangerous. Many people can’t tell what is fake and what is real. We don’t realize how great influence fake news has on us. They change our perspectives or force us to believe in their idea of true. We should fight against fake news not treat them blankly. Maybe then they will become less harmful.

In the 21 st century for many people it’s important to safe our planet from the dangerous consequences of global warming. One of the ways to ensure it is to change our way of living.
