I like the idea of the term, but would want capture these: 1. Refinement, where things are made super-concentrated and pure 2. Supernormal stimuli, where the effect becomes unnaturally intense 3. How easy it becomes to consume the result Something like 'dopamine super-refinement'. | ||

none of these things are that important, or even particularly true. The greater effect is social/cultural. Wholesale capture of industries/social phenomena by technocapital. Describing everything in terms of neurotransmitters is rather silly, doesnt even really describe the experience of the individual. | ||
