I think there’s some truth to this. Human relationships have been suffering. Families are now expected to separate, even to the point of labeling people as weird or unhealthy if they still live at home in adulthood. We ship kids off at the age of 5 so they can learn to “socialize” in state institutions instead of socializing naturally with family, friends, and neighbors as humans have done throughout history. Add technology to the mix, and it’s all downhill from there.
