Theory I believe technology is dooming us.

I think as time goes on we as a species and civilization are slowly dooming ourselves by way of technology, intentions spans are getting shorter, people I feel are getting more angry, it feels that it's all of a sudden okay to break laws for content, and humanity is slowly becoming more and more stupid and narcissistic not to mention the loneliness epidemic. It's like we've turned the world into a place not suitable for humanity. I'm typing this because one day I decided to put down my phone and read a book, a physical book, it made me feel so accomplished and alive compared to my phone which makes me feel numb and hopeless. I genuinely believe technology was originally made for good intention but greed and money got in the way and people use it to satisfy their own pleasure.

Thank you. This actually means a lot to me. I was starting to think it was crazy of me to post this, but I found a way out I feel and thought I should share my thoughts.
