How has social media helped solve and create problems in countries outside us?

Social media has played a dual role in countries outside the U.S. by facilitating both social change and unrest. On one hand, platforms like Twitter and Facebook have enabled grassroots movements, such as the Arab Spring, by allowing activists to organize and share information rapidly. Conversely, social media can also exacerbate issues, such as the spread of misinformation and hate speech, leading to increased polarization and violence in various regions. This complex dynamic illustrates how social media can simultaneously empower citizens and challenge societal stability.
