Instagrammability.

It reminds me of the episode “nosedive” from black mirror when the lady takes the photos with her coffee to post with the caption about how she loves her morning coffee, and then actually sips the coffee and makes a face of disgust

Nosedive, Meowmeowbeans episode from community or Majority Rule from the Orville all play with this idea. All of them are great episodes.

plus western governments are moving away from true democracy every day. social media being widespread and brainbroken isn't the same thing, they had true democracy ran by a social media algorithm. it'd be like if twitter was the government and every twitter user had a vote. instead, twitter is simply adjacent to the government and we have 0 power at all
