Social Media Want YOU Isolated, Angry, Envious, Scared (with Moshe Fabrikant, Israel)
Social media were designed to attract "eyeballs" and monetize them via targeted advertising. To guarantee repeat use, the technology fostered the diminishment of impulse control and delayed gratification and emphasized relative positioning (envy and status via ranking). It also deliberately rewarded escalating aggression.
These led to the operant conditioning of the users of these platforms and to addictive behaviors.
Addiction, in turn, engendered a reduced capacity for intimacy and for the self-regulation of the user's sense of self-worth and identity. Attention-seeking and grandiosity resulted in dysempathy (enhanced pathological narcissism).
