    This is a natural reaction of some people in response to the modern “fashion for positive”. Now the words “active-positive-creative” sound from any iron, it is necessary to “reach the maximum”, and “drive all the negativity out of life”. However, people continue to be people – with their fears, embarrassment, and fatigue. “Positive thinking” is basically ignoring the natural feelings of living people. Everyone has the right to any feelings, including anger, aggression, melancholy, boredom. But when society does not accept, people act in different ways. Some become conformists-they pretend that everything is fine with them, but they hide the “wrong” feelings or do not notice them. And others challenge society by openly declaring, ” Yes, I'm a misanthrope! Yes, I'm evil! if you don't like it, don't communicate!” This is just a statement about your own dissimilarity and the right to be what you are.

    All these “social phobes”, “misanthropes”, “bores” are not clinical diagnoses, but labels. They are hung on a person by others, or he himself. This is sometimes convenient. “Yes, I'm a nerd, and I like to read books, not go to clubs.” “Yes, I'm a social phobe, and I'm bored in this company.” Call it what you want, but don't interfere with living the way you like.

    Because we are better. In general, after the masses of ordinary people filled the Internet, it became clear that they are boring, formulaic, uneducated and uninteresting. Misanthropes, sociophobes and introverts in the new society turned out to be bright stars against the background of huge masses of hollow shells with painted smiles. At least, those who are not shy about expressing themselves.

    People can afford it. In poorer societies, people are more dependent on the community.

    Modern technology development has made this effect massive. Previously, you had to work a lot with your own hands to be a sociophobe.

    If you meant “fashionable”, then none of this is so popular. The second is generally a disease that is treated and fashion has nothing to do with it. These people are just waiting to leave this hopeless pedestal, while everything that they could have prevented is collapsing before their eyes, and they are simply afraid. Still others, as psychologists say, do not deviate from the broad boundaries of the norm, and even they miraculously fit in. An introvert, like an extrovert, can be a social phobe, but in different proportions. And a misanthrope, IMHO, is an ordinary person, whose experience of life or own philosophy says that people are more likely to be stupid, immoral, very selfish, and unlike a social phobe, he is not afraid of people, and you are always welcome to take a prize. Although it may outgrow it.�

    It's not fashionable. This diversity of qualities is such on Earth.
