And those of y’all who are promoting this pseudo-science are part of the problem. Look at what y’all did to TikTok. Wacky liberal lemmings handing the internet over to literal fascists.
Literally nobody mentioning what happened to TikTok after that sinophobic pogram. Peeps are just excited for round 2.
How is it psuedo science to compare the addicting ways social media affects people and its similarity to drug addiction? It’s an analogy, obviously no one is being 100% literal.
This is not just pseudo-science. It’s literally a false statement. Maybe it’s a metaphor but science is not a metaphor. Metaphor’s are generally a bad foundation for actions based on reality.
It’s ok if people want to compare “social media” to a drug, but there’s any meaningful evidence for those claims either so that’s pseudo-science too. Notice how all the arguments against “social media” here are based on feelings, stories, etc. while there’s zero scientific evidence.
IG is 100% not a drug.
