    Tiktok, since it has made young people totally addicted to it. Most likely ruined many early brains so people cant live without constant dopamine hits. And probably ruined many school grades and future careers as well.

    Its an escape from the world that is so shitty that people need mental relief from it.

      It’s crazy to me that there is a whole generation (not only, even tiktok people my age) lost the attention span to watch a movie anymore. Watching a movie used to be peak entertainment, you’d plan it in advance and hang out with friends. I had a date some time ago and she told me she would beowse tiktok when nothing happens in the movie, she claimed that she can multitask really well. we watched a tv show and she was more browsing than watching. Every now and then she would look up and wait until something funny or possibly important happened, laughed or repeated it, just to look back at the phone. I told her that we can do something else if she wanted, but she still claimed it’s fine, she can do both. We watched the same episode 2 1/2 times, and she never realised.

        Yep their brains need constant dopamine. Ive also noticed in new movies how they often start with a huge action sequence to get the viewer interested, and frequently keeps throwing silly action scenes in all the time.

        You can compare this with movies from the 80s and 90s that are much slower but actually have genuine characters that are very likeable instead.
