I think your thesis is not super crisp, because this was an off the cuff post! And your examples are accordingly not super clear either, same reason. But there’s definitely still a nugget of an idea in here.
It’s something like, with the decentralization of both taking a position in the first place, and commenting on other people’s positions, the lizardmen have more access to the people taking positions than they did in a world without social media. And lizardmen can and do serious damage to individuals in a seemingly random fashion.
Yup, seems legit. Our species does not have sufficient community-norm tech to be decentralized with full-mesh contact in groups larger than Dunbar’s number.
Also, what a sentence I just wrote. What the fuck.
