I'm not a conservative and grew up listening to the music others where considering bad and were on the other side of the fence, they were an outdated generation in my eyes then.
Now as I got older I realize a lot of it was just crap stuffed into our faces keeping us from discovering the real good artists out there. Those folks did have a point here and there. A lot of that music was pumped by the music industry purely to make money and similarly this addictive software is doing the same thing with amplified effects and more shamelessness.
If covid happened in 1990, we'd all be on our land lines for 9 hours a day, and there would be nothing wrong with that either.
