I genuinely can't stand the social media generation.
Forget optics, this is a cry for help from Ja. When you are not right mentally optics are meaningless. We as a community need to be doing a better job of putting our arms around him and embracing him in this time.
Optics may have been bad wording. I just mean its sending a message he probably doesn't mean to send. This wasnt a cry for help, it was a "goodbye social media" post, but it was very easy to misconstrue that as something it was not... as shown by the fact they had to send a wellness check to his place (where he was found to be perfectly fine).
Hence why I hate the social media generation. This IG story by him was nothing more than seeing a friend randomly tweet or post on FB "THIS HURTS SO MUCH!! :cryemoji: :cryemoji: :cryemoji:" and zero context beyond that.
He doesn't need embracing, he needs social media and internet communication education.
