I am old enough that there were no social media things when I was young. Still, I have no ability to understand why they are so addictive when most people do not like them. Free will!
If you engaged in an activity (class trip, drinking with your friends, etc) and every minute you were doing that activity there was a team of people writing down everything you did and said, would you keep doing that activity?
Another "Market Trap": Cheap Airplane flights and climate change? I take 5-6 round trip, cheap domestic flights for fun every year. Yet I wish they didn't exist, because of the massive contribution of airplane flights to atmospheric carbon dioxide and climate change. It's a negative externality, and I rationalize to myself that my few, flights a year are "just a drop in the bucket". But I wish they were much more expensive (i.e. I would pay!) so that the total number of flights taken per year dropped dramatically. Yet I can't convince myself to not take advanage of them, while they are available.
Who the hell feels like they're missing out because they're not using social media? The fact that you say using social media and instead of entrapped by it and snared cognitively by it demonstrates your hitman capitalist biases
