    I wanna be a nerd for a second because I rarely get to reference this, but that there is a great historical example of Marshall McLuhan's materialist principle that the medium is the message. Ways of consuming media are dictated by the medium it comes through and dictates the way you interact with it, producing consistent social results regardless of content. It's honestly one of the greatest modern principles in communications theory.
