I miss the good ol' days when mass-market TV is what rotted kids' brains. Brain-rotting TikTok slop is totally different from that.
yeah, but those of us who grew up on tv didn't have ubiquitous access to screens either.
I've seen parents pushing toddlers around strapped into a stroller with a tablet mounted on an arm right at the kid's eye level. Even if the kid wanted to stop looking at the tablet, they'd have a hard time. They're basically Ludovico Technique-ing their own kids.
this is what i'm talking about. i watched A LOT of tv, but there were no tablets to shove at me while shopping or traveling. is the portable screens available to or pushed on kids 24-7 that seems fundamentally different to me than what i experienced as a kid.
I grew up in the '70s. My parents limited us to one hour of TV per day, but I had friends who spent nearly every waking hour when they weren't in school parked in front of the television. Like, six to seven hours per day and more on the weekends. The stats back that up, too.
i grew up in the 80s, i was a latchkey kid and i had a tv in my room and in the living room. but there were no screens to hand to me while driving, shopping, attending social or family functions. if i was bored somewhere, my options were to engage, explore, observe, read, or draw.
i think there is something fundamentally different about the relationship cultivated between small people and small, ever - present screens than the large stationary box we had at home.
It definitely seems more... Distilled? Concentrated?
There's also much less opportunity for regulation and a far more rapid response to shifting incentives
yeah, no. tv was a lot better than how fucking tiktok is today.
The short form really fucks people up. Tiktok specially is less important. Reels and youtube shorts both as well
