> Why are young girls so vulnerable to mental disease trends? Are you serious? Have you heard of qanon, anti-vax, scientology, pyrmaid schemes? We all are vuln

  I know this is getting downvoted, but the odds are very good that we each believe something that future generations will correctly see as obviously idiotic. History is just full of things where large fractions of society were wrong. It seems extremely unlikely that this is the moment in history where that stops. I think it's fair to say that kids are more vulnerable, though, for the same reason that they also get physically sick more. Immune systems develop through exposure, and they just haven't had as much exposure.

    History is just full of things where large fractions of society were wrong. It's sometimes really hard to appreciate how much a moment in time affects the long-tail of history when you're living in it.
