1stSpeaker  

Technology does not make you lonely because you can play live video games like Borderlands, CSGO, Rocket league, Payday, Minecraft servers whatever you would like to play and talk to friends on a gaming platform.

Platforms for the games like steam that allow you to talk to friends and make new ones. For example, my brother did play Rocket league and he made a friend called Mush who also played CSGO and Borderlands they communicated using discord a chat room that can have video feed for just talking to each other. With steam, if anything bad happens it can be reported and that person will be banned from the game immediately, and can’t go back on to the game ever again.

When we game we tell our friends about the game we tell them to get it, they do and you play together, talk to each other, work together.  You aren’t alone when you use technology because we can play multiplayer.

The opposition will tell you that looking at your phone makes you more alone well they are wrong  because we do socialize with our parents using social media as eva will go deeper into later on in the debate





2nd Speaker
I personally don't feel lonely when on technology so that is why I'm here and debating about this topic here are some reason's why I think it doesn't make you Feel lonely. Have you ever missed the news? Well on technology you can just search up the news
when ever and it is always updating. Sometimes the news is right at the time but then the weather changes and you don't know that until you search up the news and it's always updating so it is never wrong. You've also got so many websites like Stuff, News Hub, NZ Herald Etc

Music also can make you less lonely because a song can put you in a good mood. Sometimes a listening to music is good for students studying for long periods of time because when I'm working I enjoy listening to music and I don't feel lonely ever when I'm listening to music.

YouTube can make you less lonely because you can search up things to help you with maths and homework. Also you can search up stuff to help you with school work






Speaker 3


I personally think that technology does not make you lonely
Because you can skype, facetime and use other messaging apps to message and to communicate and stay in touch with friend and family.It is the same with social media
You can share and like your friends and family photos.While there’s  no face to face contact while making new friends, social media makes it easier than ever to connect with new people.

Technology can help decrease the feeling being isolated or lonely by simply dialling the number and speaking to friend and family member.Technology also doesn't make you
Feel not  lonely because you will never be alone knowing that there's always someone to talk to. starting a social media account you parent would probably be hesitant because  of  stranger danger but there are setting on social  media like in Instagram and Facebook when you can make your account private so only the people who you let follow can see you photos. In conclusion if think that technology does not make you lonely but make you more social and interactive
