        I think it’s because we’re social, we find it more normal to do parasocial activities than some other addictive behaviors which are often antisocial. But the reality is parasocial is just 3x antisocial in a trench coat.

      Sadly I can’t foresee a future where social media isn’t a dominant force. Like what could possibly displace it at this point? Only dismantling GAFAM could make it work.

      Yes I am aware of the irony of posting this comment on social media.
