"When playing a role, I would feel more comfortable, as you're given a prescribed way of behaving. So, both Facebook and theatre provide contrived settings that provide the illusion of social interaction"

About this Quote

In this quote, Jesse Eisenberg is discussing the resemblances between contributing in a theatrical production and engaging on social networks platforms like Facebook. He explains that when he is playing a character, he feels more at ease due to the fact that there is a predetermined set of habits and actions that he is anticipated to follow. Likewise, on Facebook, users are given a virtual environment with specific guidelines and norms that determine how they ought to connect with others. Eisenberg suggests that both theatre and Facebook create synthetic settings that offer the impression of social interaction, instead of genuine human connection. This highlights the concept that our interactions on social media might not be as genuine as we perceive them to be.
