Clarke · Answer 1

For me, a video becomes viral when it deeply affects the sensibilities of people. They tend to share videos that can either uplift the human dignity or show the violations against human rights.

It is essential to know what is happening in this world to form an educated decision. A democratic society is a society where everyone can elect his or her representative. The representative must be elected to do good for the people he or she is representing. Sometimes, viral videos of current events are needed to make people aware and participate in making the world a better place for everyone.
