Briefly

Netflix's push for "second screen content" might seem harmless, but it's feeding into a culture of mindless consumption where attention is split and art is devalued. A generation inundated with distractions risks losing genuine engagement, as content creators cater to this diminished focus, leading to a decline in quality and depth. It’s a troubling trend that threatens artistic integrity and personal health.
Art shouldn’t be consumed casually or thoughtlessly; it's an exchange of respect between creator and consumer.

This trend not only undermines the effort artists put into their work but encourages a lack of appreciation for storytelling.”}],
