Social Media Ignorance

Myself like I am sure many other in our class as well as today's society had a very different view of the trans-gender society before this discussion and moreover this class. I had images given by ignorant movies that painted awful and unthoughtful pictures of a society that like many others is often confused and misunderstood. Primarily in the past this was done because of ignorant people who lacked the necessary information. Nowadays this ignorance isn't really found in the people as much but spread because of today's social media. Because it is more appealing and and entertaining to use these groups as disgusting or evil then it is to actually explain the problems and create intelligent views on the subject. In the end we used to lack the power of communication, that was why we couldnt understand what we didn't know; thus creating ignorance. However now that we do have the power to spread ideas we use it for negativity most times due to humor and appeal. When will we take the next step?
