I've noticed it in a few people. Hell, I've noticed it in myself just a little bit, which is why I'm trying to limit my exposure to the internet in general. I want to say it's a result of the way that social media works, providing a constant stream of atomic information that reduces the mind's ability to form complex thoughts, but I don't have enough firm evidence to call it more than a hypothesis.
I'm doing the same. I look at farms on a morning, a quick check of the emails mid-day (during the week) and that's me done for the internet. Today is an exception, as i'm having a chill day and decided to double-dip on farmy goodness.
Spoilered ramblings
It's interesting that you say atomic information. I've never thought of it from this angle before but (the following info is widely regarded as true) The brain takes in millions of pieces of information per second. The conscious brain can only process between 130 and 140 pieces of information per second, which leads to all sorts of fun fuckery, from seeing Jesus in a Pretzel to fooling people with word trickery. That means that all of the information you're taking in from the internet, your brain is condensing in to bite size chunks to get the gist of the information. That short-cutting can and is used to trick people in to doing things they don't want to do - i won't go spergy here but think of car sales and marketing as an example.
That means the information we take in from MSM or SM sources, can be 99% shite and your brain will only remember the most 'important' information. It's why clickbait headlines work so well. They're worded to psychologically trick you in to clicking on the link. Your atomic information idea has got me to thinking "I wonder if we're being bombarded with corona info and dis-info, as a way to trick your brain in to only picking the buzzwords that they want you to hold on to, or worse, addicted to wanting more of. Is fear porn as addictive as normal porn?" This would mean that the internet in it's current form, whether accidental or intentional, is in effect is a disease.

I wonder if it's like you said above with the atomic information; that the brain is being over-loaded with information and cannot possibly process all of it, trying to do so reduces oxygen and nutrients to a level just below normal and long-term 18-24 month exposure (or 9-12 months if you're in lockdown) gives the same symptoms as dementia? It would explain why NPC's are so rabid and aggressive with you hit the right button (usually Trump)Brain fog has been a reported symptom, which implies that oxygen or nutrients to the brain might be restricted in some way, or possibly that it's causing some sort of dementia. Reduced mental capacity correlates strongly with increased suggestibility and a reduced ability to engage with and analyse new information. Again, only a hypothesis, as the evidence is essentially non-existent right now.
I agree 100% with this. Putting down the phone is the best mental health advice i can give to anyone (im not a trained professional, but like you say, i don't need to be a meteorologist to tell when it's raining). Just like 'putting down the fork' is good physical health advice.I've seen it too. I blame people being shut in with their nose in their phone all day. Humans aren't meant to live like that.
Funny how these people don't realize that scientific knowledge changes and evolves over time. If it didn't, humankind would be believing all sorts of wildly incorrect misconceptions about the most basic of scientific concepts. As such, it's mind-boggling that people are so mindless that they can't seem to grasp that the more COVID is studied the more we will know and the more likely it is that what we thought was true initially is no longer accurate.
They seem to understand the basics of science and even worship science as the be-all and end-all, yet pick and choose which parts of science are unquestionably correct, and which ones can be disregarded as false. For example, 100 genders is fine - even though science says otherwise, but questioning the jab means you're an anti-science nazi who wants to kill granny.
It is a religion isn't it? I don't know why we're dancing around it. It's a religion, 100%. You cannot question the pope or priests, as they are the word of God, and all those who deny these words are heretics. JFC we've gone backwards 1000 years.
I think part of it is the constant exposure to social media but I also think part of has to do with the fact that any sort of independent thought or opinion that goes against The Narrative(tm) opens people up to callout and cancel culture. Consequently, people tend to post bland conforming content online and talk about the same things offline because they've been conditioned to only talk about things that won't generate any sort of dissenting opinions or controversy since people can't be open to or accept/respect opinions different from their own.
Again, a religion. This same play happened in Britain back during the Protestant/Catholic wars. We would get a new monarch who would be Protestant, and would persecute all of the catholics. So most catholics pretended to be protestant and even retired underground to discuss catholicism and then visa versa when a catholic monarch was in power.
Who the hell is pulling these strings? because (((the jews))) sure as hell aren't in control anymore.
