i dunno it's better than "real life" etc implying online interactions aren't "real". That's how you justify shitty takes about harassment
So offline activity ("offline" isn't a bad term IMO) is "meat" in some reductionist way which aggrandizes online activity while diminishing life itself into meat and that's fine? Pass. I'll just call it offline if "real life" is too dated.
what, you're not made of meat?
My point, again, is that it sounds reductionist and dehumanizing to me. Sure, within some cliques I'm sure it's hip and cool to say but I don't think I'm the only one that may not like it outside of that.
"meat space" is a pair with "cyber space" where we do other things besides cybering in our robes and wizard hats. the reduction is deliberate and if that's meaningfully dehumanizing to you when it's not about a minority group or specific person I guess we need to talk about why dehumanizing all of humanity simultaneously is a problem.
i'm not over here referring to the non-cyber world like that constantly but I also really don't understand what motivated the doing of enough analysis to have a problem with it. For me at worst it's merely cringe.
