      Social media is far worse.

      Some people spend all their time on it arguing and being needlessly toxic, and they’re connected to it all day.

      The (incorrect) idea with video games/metal was that they made people aggressive; meanwhile, social media is a platform where people actively go to be aggressive to other people and rile themselves up.

        Yeah, but in most countries they can’t then go out and easily buy a gun to take out those frustrations.
