As far as the argument against the argument for your point, the logical argument was complete in the first paragraph:
the academic community has failed to produce any negative relationship between video games and real life.
I have not been able to find any evidence that would support the claims of talking heads, etc.
My other son is 'on the spectrum' and is a joy with all of his uniqueness.
Our overarching rule, here at Beehaw, is to be(e) nice. Your words are very far from nice. Consider this a warning.
Why is the NYT accessing the camera when going to the linked article?
This isn't happening to me. Not sure why it's happening to you.
Still having lots of fun playing Diablo 4 Season 4. Got a necromancer and a barbarian to 100. Now, I'm leveling up a sorcerer.
...I have no idea how you would even begin to resolve the issue.
For now, we must encourage all of the younger people to vote. The younger people are, understandably, frustrated by the current American political system. It can be changed with more participation over time. Doing nothing (not voting, etc.) just worsens the problem.
The far right GOP knows all of this and makes it difficult for anyone to vote. They use tactics such as gaslighting in order to cheat their way into office.
Is it the average American news sources messing with people’s minds that much?
I'd estimate that 98% of American news sources are either very biased or straight up propaganda machines. I can only rely on National Public Radio and The Associated Press.
We can still find engagement in small niche subs on Reddit. We've known, for many years, that people were going to move away from large corporate-controlled sites such as Reddit, Twitter etc..
The Fediverse is addressing this. It isn't a panacea. However, it is a re-imagining of what we want the Internet to be.
There are many others, that will come along after us, to address this further.
you’re an idiot
Name-calling isn't nice. Remember to be(e) nice at Beehaw. Consider this a warning.

Interesting back story incoming. My brother and I worked at one of the best restaurants (at the time) in Greensboro NC USA. My brother's roommate (Mike), for several years (1989 - 1992 I believe), had only a high school education. After working a shift at the restaurant, he'd return home and shut himself in his room for hours (this was almost every day). My brother inquired out of curiosity and Mike showed my brother his computer set-up and the types of digital graphics he had been working on. Mike sent a 3 dimensional application to a digital graphics arts school (I believe in Raleigh NC) and was immediately accepted. After easily completing this program of study (Mike was highly gifted and driven), he was snatched up by the company that developed Myst. He went from barely scraping by to making a substantial amount of money in the field he dreamed to work in.
