Theorem of Social Media

Theorem 1

Participants of Social Media may cause 節外生枝 on any subject, any object, any non-subject, or any non-object.

Theorem 2

A subset of participants of Social Media may be prone to assume the delusions of augmented intelligence.

Theorem 3

The axiom of Empty Vessel is absolute. Not only an empty vessel yields the loudest noise, the void in intelligence is also proportional to the size of the vessel which, by delusions of vanity, may also be paraded as the Emperor's New Clothes.

Theorem 4

Principle of Entropy holds supreme in a closed, social media ecosystem. Not only dynamic reactions occur among the reactants, the net energy from the counteraction will degrade to a minimum value at equilibrium, upon which the residual reactants may transition to phase change (anti matter) or quantum orbit (tangential) or asphyxia (singularity).

Postulate N+1

Social Media may assume similar herd behaviour to, for a lack of simile, the stock market. Where there is mass euphoria (and sense of bliss) it may be time to stage an exit; where there is mass panic (and sense of despair) it may be time to render due support.

Postulate N+2

Unique to Social Media, delusions of augmented intelligence may unleash a primal psyche into the augmented reality as an avatar of the participant. Manifests of avatars may project their alter egos, unlimited in form or abstraction, from divinity to cold crawly spineless creeps, for example.

Postulate N+3

Augmented reality in Social Media is a virtual multiverse, replete with interstellar dimensions where spirits soar, and interstitial crevices where evils lurk. Avatars may exhibit multiple and simultaneous manifestations, for example, of paranoid schizophrenia, dissociative identity, affective disorder, or such apparitions in combinations or in layers.

Postulate N+4

There are always inexhaustible commentaries with unfathomable delusions. Being not originator of subject or object, commentator contributes none greater to the sum of knowledge by the participatory collective, yet may add glitter, stench, hot air and disrepute.
