Why do "streamers" always use plural form to refer to "we" when they mean "I"? [closed]
Solution 1:
It is caused by the conscious adoption of what is known as "the inclusive we". The "we" implies that you and the writer are friends and share similar views and experiences.
Psychologically, it is used to minimise conflict and encourage agreement.
The trouble with such tricks of style is (i) they can become intrusive (ii) once you realise what is happening, or you do not agree, a certain antithesis sets in.
