Violence in drill rap music


Nikolai Meissnest focused on the rivalry between gangs, in neighboring areas in London. Killing or stabbing rival gang members, missing friends because they are in jail, drug dealing, misogyny and the hate for the police are mentioned in almost every song. Nikolai put a lot of effort into his blog, plus adding a lot of extra posts and resourceful Drill dictionary.

Women in media 


Zemkova Klara, writing about women in media that are often perceived as less likely, occupy fewer significant positions, their voices are less heard, and are often “used” as objects to display glamor and fashion. Despite that we are in the 21st century I can still feel the pressure of society thinking that men's opinions are always the main ones. This is a huge struggle for every woman, same with for example body shaming about what Klara wrote in a really interesting way in one of her current events.

Impact of tik tok on society


Liliya Sabitova showed the other side of the coin of the platform called TIKTOK, which instantly occupied the whole world and is gaining popularity day by day or even hour by hour. We should be careful using this addictive app, because it has a broad range of negative effects. The idea that scares me the most is that the children are basically growing up with that.

False advertising 

Hyeon Seo Lee focusing on current issues regarding false advertisements, how it influences not only individuals but whole society. False advertising that has been used as a method to attract consumers from buying the advertised products and make the advertised products to outshine other competitors' products. It was definitely interesting to read and by now, I am much more aware when seeing doubtful advertisement.

I would recommend the following platforms to everyone, which are closely related to the topic. As first a 2020 Czech documentary Caught in the Net (Czech: V síti) about sexual predators on the internet. Three adolescent actresses who use social media to pretend to be teenage girls are being contacted by sexual predators who try to entice them and send inappropriate pictures. The documentary dives into the formerly taboo subject of online sexual abuse. Statistics reveal that the situation is getting worse and worse every day, but awareness remains low.
