They don't have to, but they do. Let them stop, because I won't.

The upside if they stop is, they’ll stop for our entire class of people. The reason we watch Youtube is that our entire generation watches it instead of doing something else.

If an entire class of people were drawn to something else, such as watching Nebula or going to coffee shops, both would be more interesting than they are now.
