      It’s called cognitive atrophy

      Your mind works like a muscle; if you don’t use it, you begin to lose it.

      This isn’t a new concept either. For example, alzheimers patients are given puzzle based tasks to aid in stalling degradation of mental faculties.

        Lol the said the same thing for every advance in technology.

        They said the same for books in fact.

        So can you show me with evidence this is occurring. If not, I would say you have a similar pattern to how the right get all bothered by immigrants. That this belief stems from a series of online media that targeted certain groups for maximum effect
