What's the deal with male loneliness?
Like, why is it so widespread, what causes it, what solutions are available, etc. I don't really know how to ask this question so I hope I'm making sense
You're viewing a single thread.
The atomization of society. The process of a society breaking down into smaller, isolated units, where individuals are self-interested and self-sufficient. It can lead to a feeling of being alone even when surrounded by people.
I was thinking about it this morning.
Look at Beatle-mania or Spice Girl-mania.
Back in the day, 100 million people were aware of one big thing and it brought them together.
Today with the internet, you've got a million different 'big things' each with 100 fans.
We still have mass phenomenons and bringing 100 people together is plenty. What's probably missing is local community.
Serious question.
What's the last thing in entertainment that you think was known to everyone in the USA? I'm not talking about Taylor Swift dating a football player. I mean a brand new act coming out and all kinds of people excited.
I can't think of anything.
