Not surprising, the ability to target individuals whilst hiding behind the AI algo's, makes online psychological warfare a personal thing.
What percentage does it have to be before the mentally unwell are the baseline and the current baseline become the minority? Is humanity recognizing a long standing problem, or is this change to the human brain based on new factors we aren’t accounting for?

Serious question.

If half the population were chemically poisoned throughout their lives in a way that negatively affected their physical health, we'd call that a toxic environment. Why is it a disorder, and not a symptom of a toxic environment, when it comes to mental rather than physical health?
Can disorders develop due to prolonged exposure to toxic environments? I don’t see it as mutually exclusive.
