There’s a difference between using it as entertainment and using it chronically. In answer to television/ films - everything in the last twenty five to thirty years is rubbish and a waste of time. I still like a blast on a cheap Chinese hand-held emulator to fill 10-20 mins or so then I put it down and forget about it.
When you adult, you have responsibilities. I’ve known children who come from successful families who have never played on a console because they’re busy doing positive things in life that will help them in future.
I like how all the big media just happened to publish articles about “peaceful protests” to pacify the protestors, “please don’t be violent everyone, the police can’t shoot you all in the leg with rubber bullets”.
The violent protests are the successful ones. Just ask every country, ever.
