For something I have written online? I wasn’t even really trying to trigger anyone but I am not going to take things back because someone got all in their feelings. This has people flipping out! Like constantly just losing it.

You’ve obviously never been bedridden. I was. I played online games with friends living in other cities, and made new “friends” online through forums, group chats, games.
When you’re confined to a bed staring at the same 4 walls day in and day out, Wifi is a lifeline to a world you physically cannot participate in.
It is cruel, and uneducated, of you to say that people struggling with medical ailments don’t deserve access to the news, television/movies, online support groups, forums, and a place to do research.” Felicia Catherine
My response .
This statement shouldn’t be someone’s grasp at Moral authority on the question. Even with it reeking of her own Victimhood. Right now in Ontario Disability is a monthly limited income. I am actually trying to get a job so my brain injured A** can get off Disability. The truth is being Bed Ridden doesn’t mean you will die without Entertainment and let’s be honest… Fake Social Connections!
The truth is the Pandemic and Internet dependence worsened everyone’s mental health. Even I was kind of silently rooting for the Freedom Convoy at one point. That is how far gone I was! I am an anti-Libertarian. The truth is? If you don’t have many in person relationships right now? You should consider going offline and integrating more into your physical community. Some disabled people would be better off if they begged for change at the side of the road all day. Versus laying in bed all day and staring at an interactive TV with Words.
It’s not just the being lazy. Which I do not like! It is the fact that this regresses your social skills, it puts weight on you and it is a step towards anti-social behavior. I know I used to hate when my old family would advocate Going offline! As I said before? During my Post-Concussion recovery. I wish I had no phone and no computer. Cause everything I did online was ruining my life.
You aren’t going to die without the Internet. Think about going offline in 2024.

The internet is filled with Predatory behavior and Opinions you do not like. This is just the truth of it. I was a Pro-Social Media type in 2016 when I got my Digital Marketing certificate. With the use of Only Fans and 18 year old birthday countdowns? I started to change my tune. I realized the Internet has truly become the gutter of our society. You want WiFi ? Act like me in 2007. Go to the Library. There is no reason to continue with this society of alienation, depravation and addiction.
