This seems to generate disgust in me, but it isn't much better than sitting in front of the television for hours which older generations normalised to be honest. I feel like the early internet was a little more intellectual than tiktok but essentially television returned just in a more purified dopamine releasing form. Perhaps the sense of disgust is due to comparison of what could have been?
