The world is well on its way to a dark hole, if you ask me.
Two things I see with that stunt of hers (which I read about a few weeks back):
One, we have become incredibly depersonalized. Not just in terms of sex, but in terms of humanity. I see people sitting at the same table texting each other rather than talking. The line between a VR sim and actual life is blurring. The Internet may be a good "babysitter" in some respects, but it lacks authentic connection and the warmth f-2-f interaction.
Two, our dopamine receptors have — in many cases — become so overused/addicted that it takes sensationalism to get attention. Look around, even in "harmless" spaces... it takes clickbait to get anyone to notice you.
Maybe there's a third: the "middle ground" is vanishing. The idea of "doing well" is lost... you either become a mega star, or you're a loser. You have to do "a thing" (like having sex with 100 guys) or nothing at all.
