Social media makes you fake
As season three episode “Nosedive” perhaps best illustrates, there’s no more potent way to compromise your authenticity than orchestrating your entire life around racking up as many “likes” as possible. The status-obsessed Lacie (Bryce Dallas Howard) lives in a world that uses social-media ratings as actual currency, and builds toward the revelation that there’s nothing more freeing than ceasing to care what anyone—particularly anyone who judges you based on what an app says you’re worth—thinks about you.
