Sociolyase
A metaphorical term describing a person, force, or object that breaks down or fragments social bonds, communities, or interpersonal connections — much like a lyase enzyme cleaves chemical bonds in biochemistry.
It reflects modern disconnection caused by things like technology, digital isolation, or ideological polarization.
Coined by me (Gufran Pathan), combining “socio-” (relating to society) and ”-lyase” (a class of enzymes that cleave bonds), to symbolically represent the breakdown of social unity.
