social media is more like crack or some other terrible drug

  Really? It bankrupts its users? People can't hold a job because of it? People will rob stores to get more money to use more social media? It causes families to painfully detach themselves from addicts?

    it does because it eats away all valuable time and turns people into slaves and consumers instead of creators of value

      It's ok to admit that you're wrong and that it's not like crack or some terrible drug.

        it’s ok to have a different opinion and not lecture other people how yours is better

    Those behaviors aren't limited to substance addiction--perhaps most well known is gambling addiction. It's no secret that technology companies (especially social media companies) spend billions coming up with ways to keep users on their apps/services. Engagement is a palatable way to measure addiction.
