Same here hahaha. Was disappointed the moment they said « are watching screens » and then it went worse and worse in generation judgement and categorization of the new way we break the old society. They really don’t want to understand us, do they?

Don't watch screens at home. Where you're comfortable, and the content is chosen by you.

Come to work. Watch screens here. We will show you content that makes us money, content you would never choose.

Nah I'll just watch the screens showing what I want to look at, thanks anyway.

To be fair, screens are a better opiate for the masses than religion ever could aspire to.

Half my work uses a screen, and in the cold winter months so does most of my recreation. I can't honestly argue that I probably wouldn't be doing something better with my time if I didn't have my TV, games, and internet.

Add in the habit-inducing design of so many apps and websites these days and I'd argue excessive screen time is a really valid concern for people these days.

If done effectively, Screens + religion = Fox News

The two are not mutually exclusive
