Doomscrolling, zombie scrolling, and dopamine-driven streams of low-quality content are producing measurable cognitive impairment across an entire generation.
Powerful & informative article - thank you. In 2022 Websters named 'gaslighting' as the word of the year. It's no surprise that it's migrated to 'brain rot' - this is not by accident but fully engineered by the corrupted/evil cabal. Grateful I spend more time with our Creator in prayer, in Nature & connecting with people in conversation than scrolling etc. In God we Trust ...
Iodine deficiency is rampant in addition. Look up findings re iodine and "brain fog." "Cretinism", the defined syndrome of congenital iodine deficiency, seems nowadays to solely be discussed in terms of thyroid function, but by 1900 it was well understood that the brain directly uses iodine--relies upon it--independent of thyroid function alone.
Ask most doctors what caused the problem...and you will get,"We really don't know!" How can they help a person get well, if they don't know the cause? I have overcome every problem I have faced, by simply looking for the cause. What was I doing that caused it? I got rid of arthritis, tumors, obesity, colds, sore throats..and more by examining what I was eating or doing, which created the problem. The last thing I would do is take a drug, which might mask a problem, but make it worse. No doctor can be with a person 24/7 to observe one's food and lifestyle...and most know little about nutrition.
Its been deception, since 1910, when the Medical Industry started here in America with John D. Rockefeller's marketing of his petroleum-based drugs...His money set up DRUGS as the basis of medical treatments...I can't use the word care. The industry got rid of any other health modalities, which would conflict with its money-making drugs.
The article covered a very valid subject...mindless streams of nothing of value that the young people are looking at, which teach nothing...contributing to 'brain rot.' In addition, its an unhealthy activity...the radiation from the devices are throwing the brain energy out of balance too.
Nicholas, thank you for this important article. Parents, please tell the schools to stop keeping the students on computers and tablets most of the day and to ban use of personal technology devices while at school, which Texas has implemented. The children will cry and moan but they will adjust. I suggest people start reading the literary classics, much more advanced vocabulary and complex sentence structure and ideas than found in most of today's literature.
In 2012 Manfred Spitzer published the book. Digital Demens. You need to ask why was 2020 lockdown enforced on kids who was not impacted of the "flue" and the rapid role out of digital school. Now with the AI wave and all the fake content, ChatGPT use 50% fake reference to maintain the narrative.
Earlier this year a American university divided a class in three, and the created subgroups that had to submit a research. 1. #1 one group with no limits in using AI, #2 one group with limits in using AI, #3 with no use of AI.
The result was shocking, #1 could nothing about the subject when asked, #2 could the part they had research themselves and #3 knew and remembered the subject.
The world brain rot describe our offspring's ability to concentrate and deep think. They need continuously entertainment and skipp sport earlier than when I grew up.
I think the government ran schools a tool and target is to dumb down and create a class that can be satisfied with easy entertainment and is not demanding. In that way the tool for government authority is secured.
You nailed it on that one! Thanks to Nicholas for putting a spotlight on this subject. It takes 21 days to make or break a habit. Let's start with the kids, take them out of the indoctrination Network and put them in your own care. That's why I homeschool.
I told you: step on your Iphone like on the worst nightmare rat or cockroach our there and BECOME FREE of pest! Well, will need to say 'goodbye' to 'my computer' one day too.
My husband just purchased a new smartphone, which admittedly, he really needed because of the condition of his old one. I thought I also wanted a new one, but his new one seems more "intrusive" to me and instead of getting a new phone, I decided I will use my phone only minimally, for occasional texts and for two or three apps. No scrolling on Facebook or searching on Google. I will try to cut back on computer screen time as well and do more reading of books or magazines. I'm so tired of seeing people everywhere staring at their phones, especially when there's another person beside them!
Great. I wonder why they focus on social media though. Clearly mainstream media outlets, such as those under the umbrella of the Trusted News Initiative (including the BBC), have enthusiastically engaged in trivialising news in streams of low-quality opinion-loaded evidence-free propaganda

Exactly.. these ''genius'' academics that produced
1-- the glorified pharma-science --that started the excessive vaxxing of this generation til they have high levels of behavioral mental problems -
-as well as
2-- generated the DUMB-DOWN teen SCHOOLING programs
who now want to BLAME THE VICTIM for consuming junk ideas when
1-- there's NOTHING on their learning horizon to inspire anything...
AND
2-- they were likely gnoshing on junk food that was causing brain fog besides....
So........
the academics generate research-publishing credits on their resumes while blaming the victim and HIDING THEIR OWN CULPABILITY
Pointing at the symptoms and pretending those are the cause.... despicable, don't you agree?
ttyl

One of the biggest let downs of my life, Medical profession!
Health is a DIY study. The medical Industry is about selling its products. This is the focus of industries.
Don't you think deceiving people into believing that they have the answers when they clearly don't is a problem? I don't want to hear the product BS.
Shameful.

So what did you like about the article?

I couldn't agree more.
Hear ya, that,s why I use Nascent Iodine, But also, people need to learn How to Breath. We're surrounded by shallow breathers !!!!! Just saying
Very important and little realized observation!

Excellent and insightful Sandy. Thank you for recognizing Nicholas in your comments. He doesn't do this so people can talk about iodine. I digress

Does reading this count as doomscrolling?
😖
Only if you're a zombie and you can't retain any information.

Father Chad Ripperger has an excellent Sermon on this and the problems of chronic negative thinking.

It’s all downhill from here.
Who needs brain anyway?
No need think now, we have phone and AI to think for us.
Thinking is dangerous anyway.
Right?
Couldn’t agree more
“Brain-Rot.” Hyper-over-simplification …. vs OVER-specialization$ in Awake-life.
The other extreme beyond ‘brain-rot’
BOTH are related to SLEEP-DEPRIVATION’s physio-(ill)-logical brain-traumas.
i’m confused about your chart about brain disability. The left-hand axis is labeled as percentage of adults, but the numbers range from .04-.08
Are these 4/100 of one percent or are they 4 to 8%?
Hi Nicolas I Can't communicate with you because something happend with my "X" account, there is no other way to communicate?
Bill Gates et al knew exactly what they were doing. Similar playbook to Pharma.

And the court in Slovakia has officially decided it is not against the best interest of the child to let kids on tiktok for 7-9 hours daily for months
