They care when they believe it confirms their already existing bias. You will scoff at an adult telling you that D&D will make you satanic because you know that

They care when they believe it confirms their already existing bias. You will scoff at an adult telling you that D&D will make you satanic because you know that you are not satanic and have not had the urge to worship satan because of D&D. But if they are telling you social media will make you feel bad about yourself, and you actually are feeling bad about yourself, you are likely to say.. yeah that is probably right. It allows them to cast their insecurities on to "Social Media" and say "I feel this way because of X". Otherwise where are these feelings coming from? Am I really a loser?
