My phone is how I stay up to date, get important news, and find out where there are organized acts of resistance to join. So no.
Phone bad
I assumed your comment was a joke — and not a bad one, actually — until noticing the replies taking it seriously.
The comic is not a poke at cell phones. It’s about all of America and the world being so distracted by their baubles and comforts that they’re unaware of what’s right in front of them.
At least a third of America, and half of the voters, are very, very aware of what’s happening to us.
This smacks of propaganda (again). I think Lemmy is being targeted, because a few weeks ago we had a whole thread demanding violence in blue states as a solution.
What’s crazy about this is that it seems like American propaganda. This sort of thing would only help Trump. He wants violence from the left so he can justify something far worse.
Correct, its not about the phone its about “distractions” in general.
The phone is just today’s equivalent, of yesterday’s thing that keeps people entertained and distracted from the world around them. Whether that is a TV, Newspaper, Book, Play, or a cold beer.
It can be if not used in moderation, and most people do not use it in moderation, but that’s more of a fault of the platforms and addictive technology than it is to fully blame individuals
Italians had smartphones in 1922?
Two roads can lead to the same destination.
In many states it’s illegal to drive while using a phone.
