Yeah mann,all is the truth
Is it the getting old,that looking back in time,old days rule?
Ore would the digitalisation fuck up the experiance of life.
In old days you went out,got drunk with people around you,met girls or what ever you looked out for and phisicly met them.
Not like now,make a first impression bij internet photo,in our chair at home...ALONE!!
And the manipulation of tv,that gives you bite size opinions on how to think ,without thinking and making up your own mind.
Fact,its easy to just folow mainstream opinion,but do you think about your own opinion an deare to come out for it ,and chance to get shot or worse.
Fuck the digital adiction to phones to.free your self,....
But how??

i think part of it is the nostalgia but theres scientific evidence that suggests we shouldnt be getting this much screen time. i dont have any links on hand but just look around, theres proof everywhere. i feel even worse for gen alpha and the "ipad kids." i was kind of an ipad kid in my youth but it wasnt as bad as it is now. yes, technology can be beneficial when used in moderation, but no one wants to put limits on their screentime. we practically live online. i have way more fun when i go out with my friends and shit but i tend to shut myself in bc i dont have motivation and im lowkey a lil mentally ill. being around tech all the time just makes it worse. its a vicious cycle and im trying to get out of it ^^;

I don't watch TV either. Maybe how-toe but never fiction drama news ect. It's all propaganda designed to enrage you at the wrong people. The whole iPad tablet debate....you have to realize that we don't actually know jack shit but the loudest speculators are usually the least qualified. It's something that is individual. Surely every child shouldn't be strapped to a tablet, but I know a few who are ans it has helped them immensely. A child's interest in learning is directly proportionate to their interest in the subject. Kids don't learn their multiplication tables because mom and dad threatened to take something away. They got interested the moment they saw the power rangers or blaze or my Lil pony doing it. I have specific examples but it's too close to doxing myself to say much. How many places past the decimal point do you know pi? I know an 8 yo who knows it to 35 digits past the decimal. HOW many languages do you speak? I know a 6yo that can speak and understand 4. That 8yo can do do multiplication, 4 digits x 4 digits, as fast as you can with a calculator. He gets it right. The government says these are disabled but I think they are differently able. They learned everything they know from tablets. That 8yo programs chatbots you can download from guithub. He has a YouTube channel. He doesn't need any help, he can do it all.

you're absolutely right tbh. i've been online from a very young age but when i was in elementary i did about half my learning from physical books so i might be kind of biased. taking away my electronics never helped me, and if anything, it only hindered both my happiness (not that it was dependent on devices but it just sucked not having that as an OPTION) and my learning. the internet can be an amazing education tool, but there's a lot of brainrot content on there as well. kids just need discernment, and a lot of kids i know don't exactly have that. i know there r smart kids out there like the ones u brought up but i don't know them personally (unless you count myself... i don't mean to sound arrogant but i had an interest in biology, more specifically human biology and various diseases when i was super young. like this was my main interest from 4-8 years old lol...)
and i agree, the government just likes to overdiagnose, exaggerate, and sometimes even make up mental illnesses to push medications. there's a bigger agenda behind this. they want to create mindless, homogenous workers and "keep everyone in line" so to speak. very disheartening. even actual mental illnesses have their advantages. i could be diagnosed with schizophrenia (never got an official diagnosis because i don't want meds but i fit the diagnostic criteria and have been in psychotic episodes that negatively impacted my life. a lot of ppl i know seem to think its drug induced but i showed signs far before i started doing any drugs...) and while it definitely has its drawbacks, it kind of helps my art and writing. it's really expressive and more "raw" i guess. plus sometimes my paranoia feels more like intuition. it's correct about 50% of the time... lol
