> You want to let yourself think about things that you enjoy and motivate you INTRINSICALLY, not someone else because then you just keep needed to rely on their enthusiasm.

Legitimate question for debate: how does this differ for social media vs other media? Apart from social media being more addictive, all media is pushing someone else's thoughts on you, in some way. I can imagine old folks would've made similar arguments against TV and books.

(I ask this but still 100% agree social media sucks)

Social media is rapid fire short cuts and videos.

Destroys our imagination and creativity. Instant satisfaction.

When we imagine things we are exploring a tree of possibilities and following the branches that give us satisfaction.
