You're welcome. Glad you appreciated my response to your post. I agree with everything you said and it is messing up society in some ways, however.. It does have its plusses like I mentioned, and I do disagree with you on one point here..

Games are of course similar to that, because you get dopamine release by feeling like you've achieved something, while in fact, you achieved nothing in real value.

I'm not sure what you mean by real value, but video games can be very valuable. They can help us learn lots of things, I remember there was a TedTalks once and a lady programmer claimed it's going to be video game players who save the world.. Because they like "going on quests" and "obtaining achievements" and things like that and I tend to agree with her.

I don't game much anymore, but it was a big part of my youth and it definitely helped me in some ways. I know my brain operates like a million times faster than many peoples because of video games. Especially cause I used to play games like Tetris and Chess a lot.. So I mean.. Video games are definitely not all bad, they can be very useful and important tools if used responsibly.

Problem is.. Like social media and drugs for that matter as well as many other things, many if not most people don't use them responsibly.

So.. I think we should work more on raising the human spirit up, instead of demonizing any kinds of technologies. If the human spirit were more evolved, it wouldn't use these tools in such stupid, lazy and narcissistic ways.
