Wow this famefy app thing is fascinating!! The “we” thing really bothers me too, and it’s doubly interesting considering how much moral individualism has taken off in the digital age (the disappearance of close friends/neighborly relationships/“the village,” people saying that they “don’t owe anybody anything,” etc. it’s a striking contrast!
Yesss!! I also did a piece on “How Connivence Killing Community” and it touches exactly what your talking about--- people avoid IRL communities and the responsibility that comes along with it! Ultimately the WE thing is driving ME nuts!
Wow wow wow yes! The usage of 'we' almost as a cushion to avoid backlash and ostracization online which is basically the worst outcome ever in the online sphere. Loved reading this.

Love the coining, “We-ification.”
