We all know these social and short-form content platforms are exploiting our attention for ad views and private information. However, the greater harm might be the addictive side of it. “Dopamine rushes” I mean.
I don’t want to jump to conclusion but recently I’ve noticed the trend of increasing cases where people get heart diseases, kidney failure, hypertension, etc in my country (at very young age, below 30). Could it be that not only these platforms are harmful in mental health and privacy but also physical health?
PS: Sorry for my bad English…
Sure, being addicted to staring at a small screen in your hand means less physical activity and more heart disease. Also, the constant propaganda and focus on negative news can increase cortisol and blood pressure.
Your English is good.
Why does everyone who says they have bad English always have amazing English
It’s that… Thing… Where if you know stuff, you realise how much stuff you don’t know. And if you don’t know, you don’t know you don’t know.
So because they know English a bit, but it’s not as much as their primary language, they realise how much they don’t know.
Whereas people who only know English don’t know how bad they is at it.
FYI I only know English, but I’m pretty great at it.
The dunning Krueger curve thingo? That makes sense
Also I recognize your name for some reason.
