Context collapse is multi- faceted and affects social justice and identity issues. This is evident in the everchanging social media posting behavior of influencers who long for authenticity. In the legal field, court cases are also influenced by context collapse, Depp v. Heard being a prime example. Additionally, groups and corporations can use it for leveraging through targeting specific demographics and reaffirming their confirmation biases. Context collapse disconnects people through misinformation and communication dissonance. This paper concludes that it is important to resolve the context collapse that occurs in the cyberspace and society in order to eliminate elusive generalizations and restore empathy and individualism.
