> Are you really that dumb

Do you really want an answer to your questions, or do you just want to flaunt some misguided moral superiority? Insulting people isn’t an effective way to get them to do something for you.

Are you really that lacking in empathy that you’re incapable of understanding your fellow humans are being constantly bombarded with addictive messages and technology which—surprise!—makes them addicted? Are you really that cruel that instead of encouraging those trying to leave a bad situation, you find it more amusing to pile on and ridicule their efforts? Are you really that disconnected from society and the human experience that you have never even so much as skimmed any of the countless articles and books on the subject?



I am incapable of understanding why our follow humans are constantly bombarded with proprietary software. I am encouraging those to read a printed word, not the capitalists' burp, how can I ridiculate their efforts if "the efforts" is nothing?. The books I have "skimmed" are from Psychology which is a pseudo-science, sorry.
