A series called "How to Practice Social Justice This Election Season Without Being a Jackass" wouldn't be complete without an episode in which we talk about the scene of many crimes of jackassdom: social media.
 
After all, the ways that we communicate in virtual platforms are quite different from in real life interactions. We can edit the things that we say. We lack the nonverbal context of understanding what happened before the interaction. We don't see how other people respond, which makes it easier to disconnect and dehumanize.
 
In this episode, Julia and Jeremiah talk about:
  • Hiding behind avatars
  • The physiology of online interactions
  • Shame and virtue signaling
  • Gotcha moments
  • Short form vs. long-form content, and other social media to-do's.
Check out Episode #81: How to Practice Social Justice This Election Season Without Being a Jackass: The Role of Social Media on Apple Podcasts.
