The problem is the short-form content is like crack. It destroys your brain's ability to use dopamine properly.

And it's mostly superficial, clickbait content. Yes, there are gems, but overall more harm than good, imo.

Clearly, though, that is where things have moved with younger folks. It exploits their ADHD.

Depth is impossible with short-form though, and long-form is far less damaging to your brain chemistry.

EDIT: it also makes it far easier to brainwash/maipulate (in any direction). There is no time to think, no time to verify and validate, just tweak on dopamine and quickly to the next thing.
