How is technology and social media contributing to youth crime? - Candice K - 02-25-2014 01:49 AM
Also, how does the media influence the youth criminal justice system?

Technology does it by establishing a base standard of achievement for competitive morals necessary to "keep a job"; "screw unto others", "nose to the grindstone", "bills to pay", "what do You care", etc. While Social Media exploits the "us versus them" motivation of factional consensus building by associating desires directly to specific forms of expressing them like how to dress, how to speak, how to walk, how to manipulate tools, etc.
As to "how does the media influence the youth criminal justice system", it's about time someone put that out in public - too many people believe it's the government that uses "the press", when, in fact, it most certainly is indeed the ambitions of the press that actually cause the revolutions through nothing short of simple Harping on an agenda or pet issue that originates from either the owner of the "press" itself, or the major advertiser that finances it, or the most recent corp of graduates it employs as 'qualified' voices to 'relate' an issue. It's "the media" that sets the "standards" against which all things are measured and thereby the "goals" that are to be achieved by choosing and incessantly portraying whose plans are "smart" and therefore require adoption and whose are "dumb" and demand culling.
