Abstract

The development of media technology has allowed different social contexts to be integrated into online networking platforms, and users face the breakdown and risk of uncontrolled social management in multiple contexts, which has given rise to a variety of new types of social interaction that are different from traditional offline face-to-face communication. The masses use softened language to maintain pluralistic online social relationships, and use ingratiating texts to achieve their performative purposes. The group power structure and the use of symbolic violence regulate the innovative development of the Internet context, and the self-alienation and the lack of media construct a new round of contextual collapse. Starting from the symbolic representation of text-pleasing syndrome, we explore its metaphorical multi-contextual collapse and the way to alleviate the social dilemma so as to construct a new context, and deeply consider the human-technology-society relationship triggered by media availability.
