Addicts never want you to cut their supply off. Social media is a video game as much as World of Warcraft is. There's no value judgment there; I enjoy video games. I liken it to video games to suggest that perhaps playing video games 5 hours a day constantly isn't healthy, that you probably shouldn't be playing video games while on the clock, that real life usually has a more lasting impact on your well-being than video games, and that, like other addictive behaviors, they often mask a void in a person's life that may be better being addressed directly. Also, I'm still salty that the general public would've snubbed private Internet use as nerdy in the early 2000s and now has no problem being addicted out in public to the point of awkwardly ignoring real life conversations.
