I used to be of this opinion until I asked myself whether I'm really that fluidly intelligent and able to approach things with better critical thinking, and am not a sitting duck for being easily manipulated by technology. Turns out, I was wrong and I am human after all and there are ways to manipulate me, especially by using the technology I love so much.

Other comments here seem to be indicating this is a binary "young people unaffected, older people affected" dichotomy. No. It's about the generality. Bell curve clearly exists for many dimensions.

Agreed. And, look, you wrote:
> The younger generations, with their higher level of fluid intelligence, are able to approach things with better critical thinking
Personally I try to write "are more often able to", or "tend to ...", so it sounds more bell-curvish
