I don't get the animosity towards the modern phone. It's basically a huge library in a small portable form. How is it intrinsically better to spend hours reading at a library vs while sitting elsewhere like at home or while drinking coffee at the diner, or did people also have a weird hatred for spending hours reading in a library, just like with anything else honestly like why is having a map on a phone bad but a map in paper form good, etc
It's not having a map on a phone that's a threat, it's more that the social media apps have been specifically designed to create severe dopamine addiction pathways in the brain and destroy attention spans. And the 24/7 surveillance. I'm no expert though, I've never had one.
Young people don't know how to interact with humans and real life community has been lost.
There are things like they don't want to 'catch feelings' and just live life through online avatars.
It's like if you have a business, you serve the people in your store before the phone. So people get annoyed when they came to socialize and spend time with you, and you are just staring at a screen chatting with random from around the world with no impact on your life.
Also, relying on a phone for everything, out sourcing your thinking, opinions, and memory.... And maybe critical thinking.
There is a reason the elite and tech giants forbid their kids from having smart tech

Well I guess that's why I don't get it then, I don't use social media, I just don't see the appeal

People can't input text as fast as a desktop. They've become like in the idiocracy movie since the "smart" phones.
