I think you should. We make people feel bad for fleeing into drugs right? For gambling? We tell our kids it's bad.

But it's ok to get the same hits from a website that does everything in its power to keep your eyeballs glued to it? Like a slotmachine keeps you pulling that lever? Like heroine keeps you hunting for that next hit?

We're better off without it. We're better off telling each other it's bad.

You can recognize a bad behavior but berating someone or yourself for it isn't the best foundation for making positive change.
