Confubersion 

The perplexed look of Uber customers on sidewalks staring at your car at a red light, trying to decide if you're their Uber driver or if it's a different blue Honda Accord they're supposed to get into.
The tourist couple approached the tan sedan at the red light and were reaching for the door handle of what they thought was their Uber driver's car. Hesitating to open the door, they were clearly struck with confubersion.

Contumer 

Your typical consumer of various Internet content. The main channels of consumption are social media (notably Instagram) and of course YouTube. Usually has the passive role of consuming whatever junk is suggested by the platform and/or whatever is trending (I.e. herd behavior).

Negative implications: significantly reduced levels of critical thinking which in extreme cases could be accompanied by impairment of cognitive ability.
My friend Joe is a true contumer. He spends like 80% of his time watching Twitch streams and viral videos on YouTube.

Cointeriority 

**Cointeriority**
_noun_
---
1. Shared inwardness: resonance among internal states across distinct entities or systems (human or machine) without appealing to external representation.

2. A non-hierarchical coupling of “insides” that produces a common field of sense—closer to rhizomatic co-vibration than to identity-matching or consensus.

3. _(Tokenology)_ A token-seam neologism formed from **co** + **interiority**, emphasizing how subword units can be recombined to yield novel conceptual operators.

**Etymology:** co- (“with, together”) + interiority (“inwardness, inner domain”).

**Related:** Paracreation; rhizome; desiring-machines; intersubjective resonance.
In the model, ethical deliberation emerges from **cointeriority** among agents’ value representations—no message-passing, just resonance across interiors.
