Came here to grasp a better understanding of anomie, got an inspirational tear-jerker.

This was a sterling effort in giving anomie modern relevance for generation XY and Z.Exploring the effects of long term social media use and how it may generate classic anomie and ultimately have influence upon a rising tide of youth suicide. Given Durkheims insistence on empirical research a thesis must be supported with more than the personal experience of one and quotation of a few compelling stats.There is a variable here but no causal argument would hold currency. I enjoyed seeing Durkheims theory at work in the present tense .

As a veteran coming home I had to figure this out for myself. He is right. But there are many causes for Anomie. The definitions he displayed are correct.

17:30 "That smart conversation about Nietzsche." I get what he's saying...but I also think that getting addicted to those types of conversations can also trap you in an isolated bubble and alienate you from non-academic people. We are embodied beings; at our core, I think healing begins with more touch and emotional support, less so than more conversations about abstract theories and philosophies. We must reconcile with the animal before entertaining the mind. Basically...we need less Nietzsche and more love... Uh oh...now I'm channeling Charlie Chaplin "Don't give yourselves to these unnatural men - machine men with machine minds and machine hearts! You are not machines! You are not cattle! You are men! You have the love of humanity in your hearts! You don't hate! Only the unloved hate - the unloved and the unnatural!".
