The Social Dilemma (2020)

The Social Dilemma, shown on Netflix, claims to be one of the most life-changing documentaries.

Ten minutes into the film, I stopped watching. I couldn’t see where it was going.

But I did skip to the end part, where it says, "How do you get out of the Matrix if you don’t know that you’re in the Matrix?"

I don’t think I’m in the Matrix. At least no one is pointing a gun at me, forcing me to check my phone every minute. I do it willingly.

It’s more of an addiction. Yes, they did a great job attracting users, but it still comes back to our own choices.  Just like addictions to shopping, traveling, alcohol, smoking, etc.—too much of anything is never a good thing.
