Friends slowly pulled away while I slowly isolated myself because of this unwillingness to get on board. This world is so fucking gay. It’s only gotten worse because of COVID. I literally will be shitposting on 4chan on my phone going for a walk because the second I put my phone down, I see nothing but horror. Nobody actually lives their life they just stare at their fucking phone all day every day, bully and harass others that they don't like to the point of suicide while in real life, pretend they like you or are your friends but will expose themselves what they really think once they post their toxicity on social media platforms.
While social media sites like Friendster and Myspace existed before, people weren't plugged in 24/7 since you needed a PC for that. With the advent of the iPhone and the smartphones that followed with it, everything suddenly changed. What went wrong with this world and where are the sane individuals who has formed communities other than the Amish who outright reject every form of technology after the 1800s?
If I could opt out in this world and join a community where social media shit and smartphones are banned, where acting and socializing like a NORMAL human being while not outright totally neglecting technology but only removing the toxic aspects of it, I would in a heartbeat.
