Is this a language thing or a culture thing?
Is it really accurate to say most people "consume" media instead of engaging with it?
(I've been confused about it for a while b/c the people who don't use their critical thinking skills while watching/reading/playing things have always been in the minority for me, and even they have usually been uncritical of things they haven't fully engaged with -- so, the same as me, I don't do the neck deep character dives into everything either.)
(It has that same suspicious sound as someone saying "sheeple" tbh)
