Agreed.
The idea that a social network is better or of a higher quality simply because there are more bodies around you is a false premise. This sweeps aside the idea that people may prefer a lower density social network where each party mutually seeks another out as opposed to forced through proximity.
- icebraining 7y agoPeople in dense cities don't have social networks based on proximity, where did you get that idea? On the contrary, the big city is where you can disappear, and live almost anonymously. The alienation comes exactly from that: the lack of forced interactions with the same people pushing you into forming social connections.
