Re: Sunday's podcast episode & Haidt, I have had one of these light phones for about 5 years: https://www.thelightphone.com. Sleek, simple communication tool without internet and social media. I strongly recommend it for anyone, especially for kids, even high school and 16+. (Working adults: no email, Slack, or Teams so it relieves you from 24/7 expectations unless the expectations are stated explicitly!)
Note: I never had a smartphone so I can't say much about the transition process. I do have a tablet, which I leave at home unless I have a very, very good reason to carry it, and an iPod, which I use only for music, podcasts, and mobile tickets (ugh grrr Ticketmaster).
p.s. don't listen to the reviewers who say it doesn't work well. That's a feature, not a bug. They're just saying "it isn't an iPhone" and that's the point.
For Haidt as the messenger... idk; you're saying it's not just nostalgia but I do kinda find Haidt's entire affect, when he transitions from descriptive to prescriptive, to be ideologically framed nostalgia, or something like that.
If our culture is moralistic therapeutic deism, maybe Haidt's prescriptive work is moralistic psychological atheism? Or m traditional a? Or ...?? something
