Sometimes social media scares me
Have you ever noticed how quickly the information spread, and how quickly people start to make their comments without checking the reliability of the source or without having the expertise in some specific topic?
In almost all societies exist the right to free expression, so it's okey that people express their opinion, but I feel that sometimes they don't measure or take care of their words. I have seen a lot of fights in the middle of this comments, and it makes me feel a little sad, because I have seen how easy is loss control and hurt someone else (maybe not consciously). And sometimes this fights are about completely false information, as you can see in some experimental publications that after achieving a great amount of "shares" or "likes" are recognized as false by their authors.
I really love the way that social media can help to spread good news, or how it can be used to help people to find their lost pet, and another amazing applications. So that is why I think that we need to remind there is another person behind every profile or member of social media, that it's dangerous sharing something that we are not sure it's true (What if we are not sure about possible effects of a medication or diet that we are recommending, for example, without being a health professional?), and more important, that we need to be careful with our words.

NOTE: the last long sentence is a bit awkward with the parenthetical question in the middle. I would revise it like this:
So that is why I think that we need to remember that there is another person behind every social media profile. It''s canalso be dangerous to share something when we are not sure whether it's true. For example: what if I am not sure about thepossible effects of a medication or diet that I am recommending, since I am not a health professional?). Most importantly, we need to be careful with our words.
** they is plural, thus opinion must be opinions
