tagging
Tagging is the civilized vice of slapping countless labels on people and information to secure one's own comfort and a hollow sense of superiority. It is less about organizing data and more about justifying the desire to meddle in the affairs of strangers. In the world of social media, people crave tags, are bound by them, and can never escape the cycle of tagging. What tagging offers is not a true understanding but a superficial illusion gained through classification.
