Everybody wants to blame something. Usually one thing. Correlation is not causation. And causation is usually more than one thing along with things we don't know yet. It's pure cognitive bias. And if we study and know it our biases are we can change them if we want to.

This one really drives me nuts because screens have just been part of life for like 70 years and people have been looking for reasons to stigmatize them.

People will always stigmatize something. We have separated the human into mind and body which is a falsehood. How is mental Health separate from physical health? This is a very dangerous idea for many reasons and the stigma causes suffering 2 people already suffering.
