Again, they aren’t seeking it out.

If they're getting inundated with it to the point it's affecting their actual mental health, then they obviously need to change something. Whether it's the quantity or the quality of the content they consume. Logging off and going outside is always an option.

Well now you're just contradicting yourself. If someone is getting inundated with certain content that it's affecting their mental health, then that's not content they want to see. That's like saying if someone is being bullied, it's because they want to be bullied otherwise they'd change.

Logging off and going outside is always an option.

For the rest of their lives?

And I thought this was what they wanted to see?
