我一直在思考为什么性别对立这么严重,看到这篇文章让我豁然开朗。中心思想:算法制造了网络同温层。虽然有段子手编段子制造仇恨,但是是算法精准的把不同的段子推荐给不同的性别群体,无形之中制造了两个毫无交集、尖锐对立、互相仇恨的网络军团。所以算法才是真·气氛组,我想大家刷手机的时候多少会被推荐过类似的性别对立的段子。文章的结尾给出的意见是跳出网络同温层,求同存异。view other people as worthy of my consideration when they express differing opinions. 真想结婚的都是跳出了同温层的人,剩下一群haters继续在各自的同温层里内耗。不知道大家怎么看。

The Gender Wars
As I migrated over to Medium, I noticed that there was a focus on think pieces, and I consumed them with a curious eye.
After a few days of reading, a glimpse at my recommendations would have you believe that I was a woman (true) in her mid-twenties (true!) desperately searching for the affections of a husband amongst a sea of men who simply wanted to use me for sex…
Aah… not true. This has never been my experience.
A trip down the rabbit hole further revealed to me that the women who were writing articles about men who refused to marry them had a counterpart — a community of men who were writing articles about how women are manipulative and only seek to own a man’s wallet — interesting!
I found this dynamic between the flip sides of the same coin to be intriguing; they belonged to the same algorithm but were on opposing sides of the argument, and they hated each other.
They slid into each other's comment sections, armed to the teeth with gendered slurs, false proclamations, and logical fallacies that only served to make the opposing side angrier — like a revolving door of self-fulfilling prophecies.
“See!” Cried the angry mob of women, “Men will never give us wedding rings because all they care about is sex!”
“See!” Cried the bitter mob of men, “We can never trust a woman who wishes to marry because she will only use us for material gain!”They were essentially shaking their fists at phantoms created by the algorithm I could find no inkling of either party’s plight in my own personal experiences
But that’s the beauty (and the horror) of the internet — we’re frequently confronted with realities that look nothing like our own,
But what we often fail to recognize is that our inability to relate to another person does not make that person's experience null and void… but the algorithm certainly does make some people believe that their experience is the only one worth noting, and this is what I have witnessed in Medium’s algorithm.Are Algorithms Actually Dangerous?
This divide — hateful as it is — is relatively benign.
While there is vitriol between the women who wish to marry and the men who wish to protect their wealth, this problem seems to be reserved for those particular in-groups.
So, is the algorithm that fuels their confirmation bias really so dangerous? Perhaps on a personal level… but to society at large? Probably not. People who genuinely wish to marry will continue to do so, regardless of the opinions of a few angry men and women.When the Algorithm Delivers the Trolls
I have no doubt that the algorithm is a threat to me also; It is likely that I myself have — on occasion — been unceremoniously washed upon the shores of someone else's online home by the algorithm, only to berate them based on my own shallow interpretation of their reality before they have time to even say ‘hello’.
So, in direct opposition to the algorithm Gods and their polarising agendas, I’m going to continue to view other people as worthy of my consideration when they express differing opinions. Of course, this grace doesn’t extend to hate, but by all means, let’s engage in discourse.
Just be sure it arrives as a well-considered conversation, as opposed to a pile of steaming word vomit on my doorstep, and I’ll extend to you the same favour. |
