RE: Known Anonymity: The End Of The Internet Troll?
social life is a virtual reality. And we are spending hypnotized hours in our virtual world of the deadly hours of our lives, which are already limited. Our association with the real world is only in necessity. We are living in a simulation that takes place in reality, which gradually becomes more and more real.
The famous sociologist Zygmunt Bauman, who we lost, saw social media as a trap and stated that the true dialogue does not mean talking to people who believe in the same thing as you. Bauman underlined that social media is a trap in this sense, stating that many people do not use social media to open the horizon, use it to enlighten, and only listen to their own voices and see their own faces. people are becoming more and more cruel under unidentified identities! We will see together how bad the situation may be in the future. Thank you for your nice sharing. a meaningful and inquisitive article.
Good points, however I think that with things like Steem, and this new kind of known anonymity, perhaps Bauman's words can be counteracted.
Because without a learning algorithm guiding which voices we hear on Steemit, and with the added factor of genuinely wanting to protect your account's reputation, maybe we are forced into a more realistic, real-world scenario.
In real life we do not have an algorithm, even though we have our friends and family, which could be argued are like a living algorithm, we are not shielded against voices of dissent.
Also in real life, we take care not to publicly show ourselves as fanatical, and are more likely to shy away from what could be considered radical language or behaviour.
It is interesting to see what will happen in the next few years.

In this way, several different results can be produced. I also agree with what you said
Interesting, I can see the truth in what you said.
Steemit seems like the middle of the road conventional social media and real life, in a sense that it promotes civility because of reduced anonymity. I think Steemit has a potential to degrade to a conventional social media, but I do hope it doesn't. For now, steemit seems to be a good step away from the social media trap.
: / hope steemit it will not fall into the traditional situation. it would be frightening.
frankly we do not want to see people attacking each other and constantly shared images of escape :) @jazzhero
that would be terrible indeed. I think the "attacking" happens in a small degree in some other parts of steemit hehe.
But overall in my 15 or so days of steemit-life, I feel that this is a pleasant community that fosters enlightened communication and expression.
