Hobbes Jungle is at hand. But why is that everyone squeezes tendencies and behaviors to packages these days. Yes, the 'mookiest of mooks' has a mirth factor but that's just a silly overgeneralization which is the very symptom of the online world.https://www.ribbonfarm.com/2020/01/16/the-internet-of-beefs/ …

Direct communication deprived of bodily gestures, facial expressions and voice intonation spirals automaticly into hyperboles and over statements to replace this absence of the body.

Social media gestures are funny but also dangerous not because they prilferate but because they have no descriptive/explanatory power. People who use them are either unconscious or conscious sociopaths telling themselves 'why bother explaining and be precise if we can make memes?

exactly. It‘s a runaway system, a negative feedback loop setting in the moment when you hit a communication dead end - due to oneselfs stupidity or the counterparts. Then because bodies lack the meme kicks in. After several rounds the beef replaced the communication.

yes, and no, negative feed back because it spirals downwards into numbness. technicslly positive because it reeinforces but effectivly negative imo.

Yes, it's exactly the ontological hypostatization of positive feedback that is problematic. It completely evacuates any sort of positive content. Positive feedback loops everywhere. Yes, even one's colon works with positive feedback loop, it's called bowel movement.

There's a beautiful word in german that I used before I knew the term "feedback loop": Resonanzkatastrophe.
