I think it really just reveals the competency crisis that already existed. It was just easier to ignore when the missteps weren't so flagrant or still had some veneer of plausible deniability. Now it's just full on "everyone is retarded and it shows."

Same deal for the people making it their social life. It reveals just how sick society is. That people are using it as a substitute for meaningful human relationships means that society is no longer facilitating healthy human interaction to a degree that's even worse than we were willing to admit to ourselves.

We're pulling back the curtain and realizing just how bad everything actually has been this whole time.
