There's no grand meaning of life embedded in industrial production itself; it's only purpose is to assemble and distribute STUFF, right? Yes, optimized industrial production is a major pre-requisite to subsequent advances for civilization, but in and of itself, can only raise material standards of living; beyond that, we have to actually THINK again to figure out what the hell actually matters and what we can do as a species, moving forward. ;-) Oops, I meant “no means of intellectual productivity” … because, yeah, production of industrial stuff is already on it’s way to becoming almost entirely automated.

Yeah, that's a really great vision for the future of humanity. Mind Numbed by Entertainment, the armies of Indoctrinated News Zombies only occasionally dabble with the rich and challenging Human Interactions intrinsic to all the other depicted activities. No education in the mix. No means of production. Awesome. So inspiring. LOL! Yeah, that’s a really great vision for the future of humanity.

What data is this based off of? Is this just a snap shot in someones life that was arbitrarily chosen to the the example for all of the people on the internet? I partake in all of those things, and it doesn't take up more than 3 hours of my day. Entertainment, 3.5 hours?! What about exercise, sleeping, eating, or I don't know, working? This really aggravates me. Has anyone been considering taking time off (few months) from social media? Ya sorry, this is really messed up. What data is this based off of?

Has anyone been considering taking time off (few months) from social media?
