あらすじ・解説
In this episode, your hosts answer a question about whether someone who has seen some concerning posts from a local influencer related to mental health should reach out and offer support. Emma notes that it's important to consider one's own capacity, and Sara mentions some elements of social media engagement and parasocial relationships. Emma gets into the bystander effect and whether this could be affecting this situation although it's unfolding online in front of a lot of followers, instead of in person.
