    Fine, disprove it then asshole. Where’s your evidence? If educators everywhere are setting alarms off about it, that implies something’s going on. This is the new thing that’s changed.

      No need to be toxic about it. Do you think anyone who disagrees with you is automatically an asshole?

      Other than that, there’s plenty that’s changed other than the existence of short-form content, with everything going on in the world right now people are more stressed than ever. And stress is definitely one thing that reduces attention spans.

      Not saying that that is the solution but it’s definitely one explanation and in my view it’s more likely than what’s basically just the equivalent of ‘phone bad’.

        I think you’re an asshole when you dismiss my view without anything, yes.

          Well, tough shit then. That which is asserted without evidence can be dismissed without evidence.

            You dense motherfucker. Did you miss the part where I work in a fucking school and serve 5 others? Do you think each school is an island of isolation? My information might be biased, yours is non-existent.

            And no, I’m not going to do your research for you because you’re too much of a lazy cunt to it yourself but not too lazy to complain on the internet.
