A long but worthwhile read. I find the dignity culture most appealing, the honor culture most traditional, and the victim culture most segregating. If I had to cast my lot between the three, I’d go with the first, but I’m unaware of other alternatives, the weaknesses of dignity, or whether the system could be considered multidimensional. This field is obviously not my area of expertise. I wonder if there is a philosophy similar to dignity culture but where order is earned and not granted - a mix of libertarianism (no obligation to participate) but credit on behalf of productive engagement. Alas, I do feel that social media enables tribalism and thus identity conflict. And, I think that’s why I’m not on Facebook anymore. At least, I didn’t find participation to be productive, but rather ranking by popularity, momentum, and signals of the newsfeed’s algorithm. Complex stuff, but I hope that’s a statement others can engage with as I’m genuinely curious about understanding the landscape by looking through other lenses.
