then I suppose you and everyone you know has basically broken their brain with toxic social media. Or similar?

my spouse and I (30s) had no problem sitting through the new Spider-Man movie without opening up our phones.

Yep, I would say social media, especially in us Gen Zs, has made us more cynical and worried about the state of the world, apart from the obvious attention span problems.

We live in India, so for example, the rise of online (and offline) hatred towards us has definitely had an impact.
