Less screens, more reading.

Tim Ward ⭐🇪🇺🔶 #FBPE@WTL @fj There was a story on Twitter a few years ago from a father whose daughter (aged what, 8 or 9?) was in the habit of reading under the bedclothes using her torch when she was supposed to be asleep, thinking her parents didn't know what she was doing.
But she never wondered why her torch batteries didn't ever run out.
Cegorach@fj And here I was during my youth, getting odd looks because I was reading books during at school (breaks and free periods)
"You're really reading voluntarily?"
~ quote by my math teacher
We've told kids for decades that this is odd behaviour. Now it's suddenly better than what kids want to do?
This will work "great"! /s

Now if we could get them to read less fiction and more truth, then the next generation would be rising up toward freedom.

Zuri (he/him) ❌️👑 | 🕐 CET@Earl @fj What is wrong with fiction? Do you really think, all fiction is just mere total fantastical escapism with no basis in reality whatsoever? Do you think, people—especially children—cannot learn anything at all from fiction? Maybe, you should read more fiction to find out that fiction is not what you think it is
@shaedrich
And you are a writer of fiction, are you not? Then you would have a conflict of interest in this matter.
I would ask you the same question: What is wrong with truth?
Our world is flooded with lies and deception. Lies are like darkness. People who have no foundation of truth are as blind people wandering around in the wilderness at night, falling into traps. Only the truth shall make the people free.
@Earl As if only fiction writers would see any value in fiction 😂 Truly made my day
If we were talking about a specific story I'd written, sure, conflict of interest could be assumed but in case of such a broad topic this is simply laughable. Sorry, but you're making a fool of yourself.
What kind of dark cult are you in? Your world, you sharply divide into black and white, seeing only lies everywhere must be so sad.
