anti-social media

Translation: anti-social media. The term comes in the context of social media becoming anti-social, breaking social connections and creating division, and the need for a "pro-social" social media that creates social connections.

  • Synonyms: [pro-social media

  • In English, it is "anti-social media," so it is easy to understand that "anti" and "social" are combined to become "anti-social.

    • Combining order: ((anti social) media)
  • In Japanese, people who recognize "social media" as one word may misunderstand the combining order.

    • Join Order: (Anti (Social Media))
    • Ken Suzuki suggested "antisocial social networking sites"
    • I think the words on their own are pretty self-explanatory.
    • It's not going to sit well with this story being written in the "media" chapter.
      • The gap with the authors is that many Japanese do not recognize SNS as "social media" in the first place.
      • I feel that the delay in addressing the issue of false information on social networking sites has the same root.
