I absolutely agree with this one David. I recently became aware of just how much algorithms and spoon fed content was coming my way and attempting to shape my world. So now I am doing my best to fight back and make my own algorithms and not click on thing served up to me or look up something on my phone vs. remembering it, etc.
I'm glad you've become aware Melanie. I also try to stay aware. It's not a good feeling to have wasted time online reading things that are either a waste of time or generate negativity.
it is absolutely necessary to have a mental junk food diet. And I believe a lot of people are already on "that" kinda diet. Being more aware of of that digital/online/junk/socialmediaBS they consume. But you still see way more people constantly on their phones instead of with their nose in a book or their eyes on the person they have a conversation with.
Claudia, I hope you're right that many people are already on a Mental Junk Food Diet. Like you, I also see lots of people with their eyes glued to their phones. I spent some time in an airport recently, and the vast majority were head down.... even when walking!
