      It’s the Live Internet Theory. Everything you’re reading is the sock puppets of one hyperfocused person getting all the dopamine.

      I think increased screen time has contributed to more people developing symptoms of adhd. If we’d just go out and get a life, we’d be able to focus more long-attention span on things.

      The girlfriend doesn’t have it, and she hates debating/arguing. She also doesn’t post things online.

      I’ll give you a minute to figure out the point I’m making.

          The point I’m making is that you hear a lot about ADHD online because people with ADHD have a tendency to spend a lot of time posting things online. The normies don’t have to be terminally online to get a dopamine boost like we do.
