Social isolation

Social isolation is a state or near state of loss of social, mental, spiritual and physical contact with the world. It is a spectrum and can occur to varying degrees depending on the individual and society at the time.

It can lead to moodiness, irritability, general feelings of sadness, recurring depressive thoughts, and a distortion of the view of the self and the world.

Social isolation is not necessary or wanted in this world. We can all feel connected through; reaching out to a friend with a text or phone call, inviting friends over for dinner, calling a friend you haven’t talked to in a while, making amends with friends you had beef with but in the greater scope of things it was something that could be patched up, memes, giving friends hugs, petting a dog, cat sitting, watching tv together, having a picnic at a park, eating edibles together, going stargazing, making fun of nazis together, singing a song, taking a drive together, going to the grocery store with friends, running errands with a pet, having friend / family reunions, smiling at a stranger, asking “how are you” to the barista at the coffee shop.
These are all ideas towards defeating social isolation in our world.

hufman's isolation theory

the action in which a certain male homosapien isolates himself from a crowd of both men and attractive females in order to score on a cowardly account.
when the time is right the person initiates hufman's isolation theory by finding a secluded area and isolating himself from the crowd, sometimes acting sad for no particular reason...in turn the females find his so called "shyness" cute and at least one, if not multiple females flock to this person just as he intended.

isolationism

The Founding Fathers told us to follow NONINTERVENTION you fucking idiot.
"Peace, commerce, and honest friendship with all nations — entangling alliances with none." -Thomas Jefferson

The Founding Fathers followed noninterventionism, not isolationism.

A state of mind when one is mentally aware of the communication amongst oneself, nevertheless, unable to physically produce a verbal response, due to a feeling similar to exhaustion, interfering with the desire to communicate.
Coherent Unresponsive Verbal Isolation (CUVI): Similar feeling like being stoned or in a coma, yet you are 100% sober, you just don't want to, and can't verbally respond. Like being stuck.
You're coherent of your surroundings, yet you are verbally unresponsive and isolated to others trying to communicate with you. (CUVI)

isolation
