TikTok/Douyin isn't alone in impacting a mindset (though it does play a role).

I see plenty of parents (even amongst Chinese families) handing a smartphone to their kids to essentially sedate them instead of engaging with them.

Honor of Kings, Arena of Valor, and MLBB have similar dopamine rush cycles.

Heck, even a bland, aggravating, obnoxious, and stick-up-their-butt social media site like HN can induce similar cycles.
