Arguments In Status Update

Decent Essays
In Status Update, Marwick states “Status is a powerful tool that reveals the values and assumptions shared by a group; it shows power dynamics and the limits of egalitarian ideals.” President Trump has become “Twitter-armed”, he has so much power and influence towards many big parties that one of his tweets can possibly start a war. Many Twitter users have raised questions such as why POTUS Twitter account hasn't been deactivated since he has broken some rules such as sent threats, harassed others, and encourages illegal activities. But, because he is the POTUS and if they shut him down, the American people will be left in the dark.
An opposing argument can be that he shouldn't be an exception and should face the consequences like everyone

Her employer denied this private accommodation to not work on Saturday resulted in being fired from her job. The South Carolina Employment Security Commission denied her benefits since there was unacceptable religious justification for her refusing to work Saturday.…

    The argument for separate but equal precludes the notion that, separate but equal is not inherently connected to the American system of racially-based slavery. However, I find this claim to contradict and violate the very nature of the Thirteenth Amendment. In segregating the two races of the nation, we draw on the previous caste of bondage. We inherit the distinctions and prejudices of this previous system in our attempts to regulate race relations, to segregate the lives of Whites from those of Blacks. Our inheritance of prejudice, of supremical thought, will continue to infinitely exist if we allow for the complete segregation of these two races.…
