Globally, social media is credited for substantively changing the course of affairs.

Humanity has grown to accept and pattern its life around the ultra-dynamic fabric enabled by the fast and functional global interconnectedness through social media. As such, while social media is a tool for building personal bonds among family and friends, it plays a role in the large scale integration of people as well as expression of their socio-political opinions, at all societal levels.

Political opinions flood social media today, as it is too many, a safer and quicker avenue to express how they feel and what they envision in relation to the public affairs and politics.
