Timothee Chalamet Feels Social Media Might Cause ‘Societal Collapse’

Hollywood actor Timothee Chalamet is not a fan of social media. The Academy Award nominee, 26, recently got candid about feeling “intensely judged” due to the pressures of the platforms, as he spoke to reporters at the Venice Film Festival, reports People magazine.

He went so far as to say social media may lead to an imminent “societal collapse”. “To be young now, and to be young whenever — I can only speak for my generation — is to be intensely judged,” he said, according to E! News.

Timothee Chalamet was also quoted by ‘People’ as saying: “I can’t imagine what it is to grow up without the onslaught of social media. And it was a relief to play characters who are wrestling with an internal dilemma absent the ability to go on Reddit or Twitter, Instagram or TikTok and figure out where they fit in.”
