Modern life increasingly overstimulates our reptilian brain—the oldest, primal part of the brain responsible for survival instincts such as fear, aggression, and social dominance. Social media platforms, algorithms, and easy access to pornography trigger this part of the brain through constant dopamine rewards, fear of social exclusion, sexual arousal, and status competition. This persistent activation can lead to addictive behaviors, heightened anxiety, stress, and reduced capacity for rational thought. Over time, the dominance of these primal drives makes people more reactive, less thoughtful, and more easily manipulated by power structures leveraging fear and social influence. Understanding this phenomenon sheds light on why digital habits can profoundly impact mental health and social dynamics in today's world. It also highlights the importance of balancing technology use with practices that engage higher brain functions for emotional regulation and critical thinking.
