Summary
Social media platforms rely on "junk food news" content to attract users and drive engagement, promoting sensationalized and easily consumable material while discouraging meaningful discussions. Content creators, including naturists, seek engagement by using nude photos, in an attempt to normalize nudity, but question the effectiveness of their efforts within the context of social media's limitations. Despite social media activism, the naturist movement faces challenges and declining support, highlighting the need for a more meaningful and sustained advocacy approach beyond social media.
