Visual identity…and the empty “click”. Al Watan newspaper

We do not deny that social media platforms have turned into a space that provokes many who are keen to see the image of their country in the appropriate way.

Unfortunately, it is not a single account from a specific country, but rather accounts spread out like spread out mattresses.

I do not know why the owner of the account, who is at the same time considered a citizen, is striving with all his might, and through the lens of his phone, to make the account trend, at the expense of his country and at the expense of showcasing people with limited knowledge and little resourcefulness.

Some people’s scattered responses and broken words are not consistent with reality and do not reflect logic. However, they still have the right to try and participate, as everyone has the opportunity to express and learn.

On the other hand, these participants are not spared the “crackling” and the laughter and mockery of the commentators on the posts.

This leaves an impact on the viewer’s mind more than he might expect, as if every lapse is silently recorded on the image of society.

What is even more worrying is that some of what is published does not reflect the country’s culture or its true values, and what is worse is that observers from abroad attribute these actions to the entire country, as if a passing scene is capable of summarizing the identity of an entire society.

Gentlemen, honorable people, let us pay attention!!! We do not convey only with words, but with images, tone, presentation, clothing, and all the small details that appear in front of the international and local recipient. Therefore, every content has a direct impact on the nation’s image.

Hence, the importance of reviewing the content by the competent authorities to ensure that it does not offend any region or individual emerges, similar to the role of the “celebrity police” that monitors what is published to preserve the country’s reputation, without imposing strict censorship, but rather protecting the visual identity in a responsible and conscious manner.
