social skills

What most people, including me, don't have. Due to an increase in the amount of people using the Internet, that's to be expected of human society.
Bob: Do you have any social skills?
Alex: No, just like you and the other 99.99999% of the human population.

Social Luddism

Social Luddism, also SocLuddism or SocLudd, rejects mass media and anything related to it, and believes that the mass media and its consequences have been a disaster for the human race. It seeks to reduce the impacts of mass media, internet, videogames and so on in human lives believing or media should show positive things about the world more than it does with negative things, or it should be reduced until return into the times mass media weren't so harmful to people. Some variants of social luddism advocate that mass media should show show more positive things about the world and encourage people to see the positive side of life and existence, while others advocate that mass media should be reduced until it returns to the times mass media weren't so harmful to people while some few others advocate that mass media should be abolished and no longer exist. Social Luddism is often characterized by the uses of terms such as "pacification" (make mass media more pacific and positive), "positivization" (make media show more positive things than negative things), "deviolentization" (reduce violence on mass media) and "depornographization" / "depornization" (reduce pornography and porn on mass media).
"It's really hard to realize when social luddism actually started, there are a lot of examples of social luddites since 1950's-1960's, and nowadays, in the 2020's, social luddism might become a major power if people manage to turn it into reality."

Social Justice Demolisher

SJD for short,
The act of issuing hate towards a certain person or group of people who are way too pretentious for their own good while using well thought arguments and reason in order to demolish these pretentious people's "opinions".
Mark: I'm a real Social Justice Demolisher, I just completely rekt a BuzzFeed article about white males that stated that all white males are racist/sexist.
Karen: Oh mark, there should be at least 2 SJD's for every SJW only then can stupidity/ignorance completely die.

social viewing

Watching something for the social environment it provides, not the purpose it is shown for.
Amy enjoyed the Super Bowl for the social viewing it allowed while she caught up with friends.

Anti-Social Line

A group of friends walking in a horizontal line formation. One of these can easily cover the width of a hallway with very few people, and can cause extreme frustration to the masses when they move at a slow pace.
Sorry I am late, there was an anti-social line blocking the main hallway, then by the time I reached the exit I needed the toilet again.

Virtual Social Distancing

The only way to avoid a virtual hangout during quarantine.
Someone you rarely hang out with: "Hey, want to have a zoom call tonight?"
You: "Sorry! I can't."
Someone you rarely hang out with: "Why not? It's not like you can go out."
You: "I know, but I'm practicing virtual social distancing."

A person who is addicted to social media and ignores or disregards time tested good old traditions.
