This is something I have wanted to talk about for a while. Social defeat is a general term used in research to describe events that usually proceed an animal experiencing an event with their peers where the animal would feel wrong or defeated or something akin. The simple way to break this down is it is literally simple as saying that having the thought that you are "wrong" can wreak havoc on your life and health and entire existence. The literature I read practically describes direct correlations between social defeat and all diseases.
In today's society this social defeat is so skewed and over generated that I really do believe it is a massive contribution to the poor health of the world, mainly the "modern" countries. Many situations people find themselves in that they have little to no control over or simply rationally shouldn't be looked down upon (excellent example would be being looked down on for taking weed or steroids) causes substantial damage overtime. Problem is that if all was morally well our precious 1st world countries would crumble from people freeing themselves from the absurd bullshit they've been forced into.
I rarely argue nowadays and this is a very large reason why. A logical analytical display of thoughts comes across very seldom in 2019. Everything is either "RIGHT OR WRONG" and this is just something that can't be universally applied.
Argue less, feel awesome more and live longer and healthier.
