How many times have you seen someone on Twitter telling the people to stand against some other trending topic user? We can see this kind of thing almost every day, there are news that say something about for example, The new Superleague some football clubs are trying to implement. And then a lot of people, famous or not saying that that idea is not good. Do you think this other famous people that says that The Superleague is going to be the end of football think firstly how they influence the fandom behind them?
But are there any good examples in technology of people treating people as if they were the ultimate end?For example, long distance relationships are focused on the other person in an online way just because of the person itself. You want he or she just because it is he or she, not because it going to return your love or is it going to bring you happiness, WhatsApp is good example on but of course it depends on the way you use it. At the end it will be up to you to use the technology in an ethical way so you can focus on people. People need to know that behind their screens they can make a lot of damage but also you can make a lot of good things and treat other persons as what they are persons, not just words in a forum or on a YouTube comments section, on Instagram likes you shouldn't post your photos if what you really want is feel good because you have a lot of likes on your post.
In my opinion we must never forget that we are people relating with people.
"Behave in such a way that you treat humanity in a particular way. Never treat people as if they were a means to an end, on the contrary, always treat people at the same time as if they were the ultimate end." Immanuel Kant.
