I know that feeling whenever Reiwa posts words bless his soul.

What comes to mind is that what folks like us are observing as bad drivers on the road is not unlike what has been the trend in sports gambling or before that casino slot machines. It's not accurate to say that both examples benefited exclusively from more addicted clientele spending more money in casinos (which has been convincingly shown to me in a book I'd have to dig to retrieve from 20 years ago). Of equal weight is that the machines themselves have been and are still deliberately and precisely engineered to be more and more addictive. I think the same can be said for why kids given phones as toddlers a decade ago with no scaffolding (learning term) can't use computers and don't understand what a file is as tweens. Not that that's even their only problem and theirs aren't independent of my own and to this I heed patience in my anger which is like what I might feel toward a petulant child or a puppy To most motorists.
