“Social media can be a great tool if used properly (haha), but the designers and developers of these technologies knew well before hand how very irrational humans are and our proclivity to become addicted to attention, validation and stimulation. These technologies give us constant hits of dopamine. We are being played like fiddles in an orchestra, and we assume that this is normal, only because we all have gradually been conditioned to do so.
As a byproduct of these technologically mediated interactions many adults and a majority of young people only experience the world and life through a tiny glass screen. We are told what to think. What is hot and what is not. Take back your mind, take back your life, take back your imagination and take back all the forces that enable your creative power.”
