> How was it overblown, we now have a non-trivial amount of completely de-socialized men in particular who live in online cults with real world impact

There are way more factors to the the growth of this demographic than just "internet addiction" or "videogame addiction"

Then again, the internet was instrumental in spreading the ideology that is demonizing these men and causing them to turn away from society, so you're not completely wrong
