Scary shit. Make white people stupid again? https://x.com/newstart_2024/status/2049556609798402313 >This MRI study on young kids just exposed something terrifying: > They scanned the brains of 60 children aged 3–5 — including 5-year-old Rose — and found interactive screen time is causing measurable loss of white matter in their developing brains. Even just 2 hours a day is linked to impaired neural connectivity, language, and literacy development. > Professor Mike Nagel (neuroscientist and father) said his first reaction was simply: “Wow… I was not anticipating seeing anything like that.” > We’re physically changing children’s brains before they even start school — and the damage is visible on scans. > This one actually unsettled me. I’ve always suspected too much screen time was bad, but seeing real white matter loss in toddlers hits different.
