My favorite of the season is the first episode

The best impression of the whole season is the first episode. People who think that most of the black episodes may not have felt the fear of being dominated by Facebook and YouTube in Britain and the United States.

First of all, contrary to a certain high praise critic, I think it is not illogical to use the scoring system in the drama in the future society. The critic believes that most of our daily scoring needs to explain the reasons for the facts. In the future, science fiction will not unreasonably allow malicious scoring. However, the society shown in the play is not a comprehensive scoring society, but a purely social society. In social interaction, there is no reason to say, only like it or not. This society regards social interaction and social skills as an important criterion for measuring people. After each social session, it requires the evaluation of the social quality of the other person (whether it is a greeting, a photo from a po or a service-here The scoring of the service staff is more from the perspective of the feelings of the other party). In such a society, the most important thing is to make others like yourself. Therefore, people should always wear a gentle smile, dress decently and behave gracefully, and when they encounter each other, they must scan the other person’s "circle of friends" to make up for the other person’s current situation in order to create a topic to prevent embarrassment (when the heroine meets the old person in the elevator), In short, you need to be civilized and thoughtful, to be a social expert, to become a classy person in this society.

So, is there a possibility for such a social society to exist? some. Logically speaking, a person that everyone likes must be unique, or at least must be a "normal", conforming to social norms, and not making a big mistake. And even if the people that everyone doesn't like may not necessarily have some kind of personality defect, at least there are some things that don't conform to social norms. For this point, just look at the up host on youtube. For people with many fans and positive reviews, the "positive" (in line with the mainstream) of the Three Views is a must. At the same time, because the scoring is two-way and open, such scores have more meaning of mutual restraint in accordance with social norms. Social norms are the key to the orderly operation of a society; compliance with social norms is an important positive evaluation of a person’s character and behavior that is pro-social and predictable. Using such a system to constrain the society, one can obtain a society where everyone stays on their own feet and strives to maintain a "comfortable and warm" society among people.

In reality, first of all, being "liked" in social networks is indeed a resource. For example, if an article or video is liked, there will be advertising cooperation, becoming an Internet celebrity, and reaching the pinnacle of life. Secondly, especially in Western society, social interaction is absolutely vital. Not good at talking, not accustomed to social situations are regarded as a weakness in personality. Frequent drinking and chatting with familiar or unfamiliar people is an important part of most people’s lives (the freshman week of the exchange university is arranged every night People who don’t know go out to play...), and social networks are an extension of offline social interaction, an important step in building a personal image, and a way to keep in touch and stimulate offline social interaction. You post photos with others on Facebook as a social ritual (or even an account of others), and you are circled in the photos by others, and friends of friends of your friends give you likes (you may then become roommates) (Or work partner)...maintaining online social networking is definitely a job as important as maintaining offline social networking, and it's not just about showing off.

Going back to the TV series, I personally feel that although the heroine has made a lot of efforts to cater to the society, she is essentially a rebellious person, and this rebelliousness destroys her position in the superficially warm social society. I spoke the truth to my brother and was criticized by my brother. He was deducted a full point for cursing at the airport, and refused to be driven back by Naomi. He arrived at the wedding scene in a hurry. At that time, it was basically due to the huge blow along the way and this period of time. It collapsed under the accumulated pressure. Therefore, at this time, it is impossible to hear a speech like that of the little black brother in the first season, and only the self-destructive truth statement (I can't bear to read this paragraph and fast forward...) . Finally, when I arrived in the cell, I removed the implants from my eyes. For the first time I saw a world with dust and no filters. I finally gave up all catering to society and had no scruples about the black brother. Confrontation and shouting FUCK YOU out loud are all rebellion against the friendly social society of this civilization with filters.

It feels like a very shocking episode. like very much.
