I’m not sure I can properly compose my response because I’m not entirely familiar with the material that you’re engaging with, but I can share a couple of thoughts. I agree with the idea that Hegel predicted the Internet insofar as he was describing a network composed of nodes (humans/computers) constantly sharing ideas. But that’s only because I don’t view the Internet as any sort of novel thing. The Internet isn’t anything more complex than a series of tubes and protocols for exchanging information. what develops on top of the Internet is culture. It’s the same thing that happens when people talk to each other in real life and record information there; it’s just that now, that process can take place in a new medium. Therefore, I think it’s more accurate to say that Hegel codified the essence of mass communication before the medium that most facilitated mass communication was invented.
I think they are, in that the first commandment in Christianity prohibits idolatry, which my catechist teachers would often relate to celebrity admiration.
As far as your comments on Hegel, I agree that the internet is just a more refined form of mass communication. I do think it is however much more democratic than most forms of mass communication, which have larger amounts of control from the government or ruling aristocrats. Although the internet is somewhat controlled by corporately tailored algorithms, the government to varying extents depending on jurisdiction, and the access to the internet (which isn't always equal)... it's much closer I think to a more organically created spirit or Geist, where instead of it being headed by a select few often rich and powerful people, there is more of a chance for your average internet user to have a say in what direction humanity takes as a species.
yeah yeah whatever pure mythologic Hegel and all idealism is pure literature also Borges did predicted quantum mechanics on his Caminos que se bifurcan yeah whatever

Also, I’m really not sure of that internal religious experiences are tangibly comparable to celebrity culture
