>>12497165Probably makes people more neurotic and anxious, but the people who watched cable television for twenty years seem to be cognitively stunted somehow. Web addicts are stressed out, traumatized, and slightly unhinged, but boob tube couch potatoes have gotten used to passively going into a kind of hypnotic state where they just kind of go braindead as low iq drivel is slowly fed to them in between constant periods of numbing commercials. Internet addicts are like gambling addicts, always hungry for excitement and irritable. I think cable is probably far worse for your brain from the perspective of what /sci/ tends to value (Aka productivity, hunger for knowledge, edgelord catastrophism etc). Internet addicts are more productive than boob tube boomer’s who e had their brains filed down to a stump by mind numbing cable tv.
