> Social media delivers convenient excuses, which can be seen throughout this thread. This is definitely a factor, and people can build "communities of excuses" like r/antiwork. But .. there's definitely a social factor as well. I think people understand that, say, buying heroin or falling for a Nigerian Prince scam are irrational mistakes. However in those cases we also put blame on the pushers and the fraudsters. People tried "just say no to drugs" and "personal responsibility" and of course these things still happen. Social media is not as addictive as heroin, but people are starting to have a discussion around X and tiktok and the harms thereof. |
