Politically, I can probably be called a leftie, vote for socialist parties (NDP in Canada), believe everyone deserves a fair shot, blah blah blah.

But I can’t help but agree with many of the premises of this book, mainly, as of late, that the left sometimes takes things too far… that being said I don’t agree with pretty much anything that the right does. Wouldn’t be caught dead at a protest about it though.

In chapter 7 the authors use statistics to correlate gen z social media and internet use to depression. But I can’t help but think that depression is just becoming a less taboo and more mainstream (in my day if you said you were depressed most people would tell to quit whining and do something about it lol). So I’m hesitant to correlate the two even though I hate social media and am happy to point fingers at it.
