That simplification seems counterproductive. There is obviously a spectrum of rationality that gets compromised by addiction. Be it heroin, alcohol, sugar or gambling. There was a social engineering talk a while back that i cant find anyone

I dont see the "Look there a three headed monkey" type of tribalism distraction to be a future proof plan. The attention economy overdid it. And corruption bloomed as a result. Which is typical for a totalitarian rise. Kleptocraci

I am sorry that you took it that way, it wasnt intended as such. I responded out of curiosity. edit: Thank you for your response none the less.
