DIRECTIONS: Chооse the best аnswer fоr eаch question. Our Online Behаvior Has our increased use of social media unlocked our natural cruelty? Researcher and author Agustín Fuentes examines whether the rise in social media is really to blame for our hostility online. [A] In recent years, the Internet has become a particularly volatile place. Aggression on social media is now commonplace. In a 2017 study of 4,000 people by the Pew Research Center, four out of ten said they'd experienced harassment online. More than half of the victims said they did not know the identity of the perpetrator.1 Most people agreed that the anonymity2 of the Internet provides cover for nasty and harassing behavior. [B] Does this growing aggression on social media give us a glimpse of our real human nature? Are we - at our core - belligerent3 beasts? It's true that hate crimes are on the rise, and political divisions appear to be growing. The level of public bitterness - especially online - is substantial. But I don't believe that's because social media has unlocked our cruel human nature. [C] As an evolutionary anthropologist, I have spent years researching and writing about our transformation as a species. Over the past two million years, we have evolved from groups of apelike beings armed with sticks and stones to the creators of cars, rockets, great works of art, nations, and global economic systems. [D] How did we do this? Our brains got bigger, and our capacity for cooperation exploded. We are wired to collaborate, to create diverse social relationships, and to solve problems together. This is the inheritance4 that everyone in the 21st century carries. [E] I would argue that the rise in online aggression is a product of our evolutionary social skills, the social media boom, and the specific political and economic context in which we find ourselves. This explosive combination has opened up a space for more and more people to fan the flames5 of aggression and insult online. * * * [F] We've all heard the expression "you are what you eat." But when it comes to our behavior, a more appropriate expression may be "you are whom you meet." How we perceive, experience, and act in the world is shaped by who and what surround us on a daily basis. This includes our families, communities, institutions, beliefs, and role models. [G] These sources of influence affect our neurobiology in subtle ways. How we perceive the world is related to the patterns of people and places that we see as most connected to us. This process has deep evolutionary roots and gives humans what we call a shared reality. The connection between minds and experiences enables us to share space and work together effectively - more so than most other beings. [H] But the "whom" in the expression "whom we meet" has been changing. We may receive more information now from online sources than from physical social experiences. We may hear more announcements from 24-hour news outlets than from conversations with other humans. The ways we socially interact, especially on social media, are increasing at a time when we are more and more divided, both socially and economically. What may be the results of this? [I] Historically, we have maintained harmony by displaying compassion and friendship, and by developing connectedness when we get together. On social media, the anonymity and lack of face-to-face interaction remove a crucial part of the equation of human sociality. This opens the door to more frequent, and severe, displays of aggression. Aggressive behavior - especially to those you don't have to confront face-to-face - is easier than it's ever been. And for the aggressor, there are often no consequences. * * * [J] Humans are evolutionarily successful because our big brains have allowed us to bond and cooperate in more complex ways than any other animal. The capacity to observe how the world operates, to imagine how it might improve, and to turn that vision into reality is a key aspect of our humanity. And there lies the solution to the problem. We are equipped with the skill set to calm aggression, and to encourage cohesion. [K] For thousands of years, people have acted collectively to punish and shame aggressive antisocial actions such as bullying6 or abuse. On social media - where the aggressor is remote and anonymous - even the best-intentioned individual challenge may turn into a shouting match. But confronting the bully with a group action - a reasoned, communal response rather than a solo gesture - can be more effective at shutting down aggression. Look at the public pressures placed on media corporations to monitor hate speech and fake news online, for instance. These are examples of how humans can collaborate to encourage what's positive and discourage what's negative. [L] Yes, it seems that the world is getting more aggressive, but that's not because we are more aggressive at our core. It's because we haven't been stepping up together to do the difficult social work our contemporary world demands. That means standing up against bullying, abuse, and aggressive harassment, and promoting pro-social attitudes and actions. In person and on social media, we must do both. 1 The perpetrator of a crime is the person who commits it. 2 Anonymity occurs when someone's name is not known. 3 A belligerent person is hostile or aggressive. 4 An inheritance is something you receive from someone after they die. 5 If you fan the flames of a situation, you make it more intense or extreme. 6 Bullying is aggressive behavior intended to cause hurt or harm to a person or group.
