How do you explain the children/teenager loneliness spike since ~2008-2010 if these things are the pinnacle of connection ?

I didn't want to imply that those things are the pinnacle of connection.
I rather wanted to say that it's easier said than done. You can't just tell teenagers "stop using social media, it's bad for you". Because if their peers use social media, then they need to use social media as well.
I'm all for removing social media altogether.
