I literally do not know any of my neighbors, and that is pretty normal here. That's a simple way to put atomization, I think.
Yup. Knowing none of your neighbors; knowing none of your coworkers; making no friends through hobbies
Seeing widespread problems and injustice but having no time or energy to organize, ... Or instead, having an inability to see any problem as shared. I think Mark Fisher had something about "anti-solidarity" in one of his books that sounds like the latter
