The title buries the lede, because there is no upside, but there are ways to avoid falling victim to the trap of consuming with no idea of the impact.


It's good practice to assume that everything you're consuming online or on TV is marketing, either of a person, an ideology, or a product, which wouldn't be a big deal if it was honest with us.


The lie leads to shame and homogeny and an overall feeling of "insufficiency".


At the very best, it steals your time. At it's worst - it steals more.


Don't let it.
