The internet is dying because of modern social media and we unironically need to wipe it clean and retvrn to image boards and the like because all other social media except maybe YouTube (non-shorts) is manufacturing illiterate future lumpenproles from the youth at a catastrophic rate.

Go touch digital grass.

You do not need a website to shut down to stop using it. Just deactivate your twitter and see how much better you feel after. It'll be easy to deactivate the others after.
>all other social media
Social media isn't just centralized platforms

No, the eroding school and public transit systems are. TV was significantly worse for literacy, whereas centralized social media has an offramp as it gets kids to look into various topics, which can lead to digital grass touching when they inevitably get bored of the algorithms after like 3 weeks of using them.
imageboards fucking suck
social media sucks now because its indistinguishable from imageboards
the algorithm pushes the most psychopathic content to its front page and rewards ragebait with views
Trve. Little lumpens just see influencers peddling unnecessary shit and they suddenly want to waste money onto said unnecessary goyslop, making the companies who sponsor the influencers (to be a poster child for digital capitalism) profit more from the little gullible lumpens. Also, mainstream social media™ (and also some imageboards) can be breeding grounds for rightoid propaganda that can be displayed by the algorithm after a little lumpen looks for a (((Manosphere))) video
>WE need to wipe it clean
nah YOU just need to log off, your brain is too weak to withstand the power of the warp, social media shares the dark truths of humanity and YOU need to be disconnected because the truth is too sharp and hurts too much
the internet is faustian in nature, it's pandoras box, and just like other elements of modernity you can never go back truly, you can only escape to conservative safe spaces (for examples of people doing this: the amish)
>>826206they literally consulted psychiatrists and brain surgeons to figure out how to make the most addictive platforms possible. i dont think social media is natural in any way
>>826059>manufacturing illiterate future lumpenproles from the youth at a catastrophic rate.Kids are making personal html websites and spinning up game servers and federated microblogging nodes for their friend groups.
You are the one being made into an illiterate lumpen.
>>826210>they literally consulted psychiatrists and brain surgeons to figure out how to make the most addictive platforms possible.And yet you so eagerly use those that you see the concepts of the internet and centralized social media as interchangeable.
