Why become a social animal

The original intention of the birth of the Internet is to create a better world. It is the nature of capital to pursue profit, and there is a lack of relevant legal norms. The wild development along the way has become a caged bird unconsciously. The inherent contradiction of capitalism, capitalism is promoting The rapid development of productive forces is also accumulating the power of their own negation, and once it erupts, it will cause great destruction. We are called users and software has become a mental drug. Human society has attracted a lot of attention by software, which affects family and work. The whole society is surrounded by it. Our biggest enemy is no longer beasts, wars, and viruses. . It is the supercomputer created by ourselves that uses the free advertising-paid business model combined with the intelligent deep learning algorithm to make us unable to extricate ourselves and fall into various information cocoons without knowing it. Disrupting democracy by replacing the state with the enterprise, no one is innocent under the Matthew effect, and all shareholder and manager rewards do not allow themselves to defeat themselves, they can only accept the moment of sudden demise. The information in this world no longer reminds us of our true feelings and meaningful values. Through the business model of the media, the final value is directed to another world. The market cannot meet the needs of consumers, and even the market will never meet them. Anyone's needs have nothing to do with reality, some are only phenomena.

Our values ​​are defined, and we are social animals to some extent.
