For most of human history, social approval was not optional.
If your group rejected you, you didn’t feel bad — you died.

Your brain still runs that same biological software, built for small tribes, immediate feedback, and real consequences.

This video explains the evolutionary biology behind validation-seeking, status monitoring, dopamine prediction, and why social media exploits ancient primate circuitry.
