Vices drive social media engagement. It is defined as a dopamine hit; social media has created billions of addicts addicted to their social status through the endorphin release of likes, shares and notifications. Social Media And The Seven Deadly Sins explore the relationships between the original cardinal sins and our addiction to the likes of Facebook, Instagram, Twitter and Google. They are not the only dealers in town. But the ones who have come to dominate. Have we sold our souls searching for the next dopamine hit, and how far will we go for the subsequent notification or like? Over the past 20 years, Rory Wilmer has worked in digital marketing strategy supporting major brands propagate their messages through social media. Now he has decided to speak out about what he has seen and how we need to change our behaviour to recover from our social media addictions.

From the author of the critically acclaimed Social Media and The Seven Deadly Sins, Rory Wilmer explores the explosive rise of meme culture and its profound impact on society. Drawing from years of experience in digital strategy and behavioural economics, Wilmer uncovers the hidden power of memes to shape public opinion, manipulate perceptions, and weaponise information.

Whether you’re a digital strategist, a social media enthusiast, or simply curious about the forces shaping our world, this book offers a compelling and insightful look into the powerful world of memes.
