Modern lives are dominated by social media's presence. Complex issues, including privacy and social dynamics, often prove vexing. Yet, even in past generations, a precursor to today's social media existed, albeit with limited reach. Matters like gossip, truth-telling about others, and navigating crowd-influenced living have historically troubled human society. Interestingly, the wisdom of our past sages delved into addressing these challenges, and their insights remain remarkably pertinent. In the latest episode of "Judaism in the 21st Century," Rabbi Daniel Cohen and Dr. Steven Labkoff delve into the intricate realm of living within the context of social media. Join us as we explore their thought-provoking perspectives on this ever-relevant topic.
