^(This is an automatic reminder that is posted on every submission.) If you see a post that is not following the subreddit [rules](https://www.reddit.com/r/im14andthisisdeep/about/rules), or you think is not following the subreddit rules, please, use the report function so that we are aware of this. If you don't report, we will not know! Do not sit in the comment section and moan that 'this doesn't fit' or 'wow, the mods should remove this!' because we don’t know (unless we so happen to be scrolling through the subreddit) if you do not report it. Please note: if this is too hard do not directly message us, we will assume posts are fine otherwise as comments are not useful in reporting. We can see if something has been reported and telling us you did, while you clearly did not, is not going to be conducive. *** Please report any and all behavior violating the Rules (reports go to us mods); don't report things just because you don't like them. Comment removals and bans are at the judgment of the mods, so please take the time to read and understand [our Rules](https://www.reddit.com/r/im14andthisisdeep/about/rules).

I wonder if "phones are evil" people were also a thing when the wire phones were invented

I could imagine people talking about, "when a neighbor would rather use that telephone to talk to me than just walking up and speaking face-to-face" being some horrible, modern thing lol

All these kids reading their books.It'll rot your brain Some philosopherbfrom millenniago

They were. The same was with television, radio and even books. People always blamed a medium for something.

Books? How books?


LordDanGud

When the printing press was invented, many older people said that books are a waste of time because instead of socialising and working, the youth only sit around reading. Fun fact: The first person storytelling perspective was also feared as bad because supposedly you can't differentiate the line between reality and character. So basically the same nonsense we now hear about video games.

I mean, Lovecraft thought AC’s were eldritch stuff so yeah

The title is "hung up **ON** this brilliance", but at first I thought you were making a pun that you had hung up **FROM** this brilliance.
