if you're into meditation, you'll probably enjoy this piece a lot.
if you're not into it, or you plan on responding below in a way that suggests you didn't read the article -- you'll appear somewhat as proof of what the article contends. but even if you don't meditate or even spend time on social media, you'll completely understand the weird physical feeling you get from a disturbing thought (a remembrance of a past embarrassment, for example), and the similar feeling you get when you are hit with a tweet (or whatever) that irks you.
the analogy fits: the feelings arising from thinking a troubling thought are almost no different than the feelings arising from reading an upsetting tweet.
the conclusion is to operate social media the same way you monitor your own thoughts - which is to examine what the thought might actually be, and then disarm and discard it. which is what one does often in meditation.
