Social media is the perfect platform for status competition. It has it all: Bullying and cancel culture play the game of domination, mindfulness coaches of all walks of life play virtue and politics, selfies and posts about travel or a new prestigious job are ideal for playing success. The authors liken social networks to slot machines that offer status in unpredictable ways. Every time we publish a post or photo, we expect likes and comments, but we're not sure if the rewards will be bigger than they were yesterday. The unpredictable rewards of this targeted behavior force us to play the machine Phone Number List again and again, sometimes creating a dependency on social networks. Cyberbullying status battles take place not only within games, but between games as well. For example, if you take the anti-vaccine community, it's a classic virtue game. Contestants compete for the position of the most caring mom against a common enemy, the pharmaceutical industry. In this game, they distribute status points to each other by sharing articles and rumors that prove themselves correct and mocking their opponents. What happens when they meet someone who disagrees? Proponents of evidence-based medicine, by the very fact that it exists, cast doubt on the anti-status game and its values. This is considered an attack. If this happens, and balance the wrong people from the internet by labeling them derogatory viability. Just then, a dangerous turn takes place, and the opponent becomes a true enemy, who will stop at nothing.
