This article examines the impact of social networks, which constitute a significant part of the modern information space, on the consciousness of youth, particularly the negative influence on their moral values. It highlights how the spread of false information, violence, moral corruption, mass culture, and the promotion of Western lifestyles through the internet and social media leads young people to adopt views that contradict traditional moral norms. The article also emphasizes the importance of building ideological immunity against such threats, strengthening national moral values, and fostering critical thinking among the younger generation.
