While I agree with the general sentiment of this post and the problems phones cause, I'm not sure why you're focusing on & stigmatizing younger generations. Is there any evidence that Gen Z is more susceptible to conspiracy theories than Gen X, for example? Or that phones are driving conservatism in Gen Z, when it's the most liberal generation? I feel like everyone these days wants to point fingers at whichever generation they're not a part of
Heavens, no blame attached! Younger people have had a hard time and been targets of the companies because that's business (customers for life, best thing going) Older people are susceptible to conspiracy theories, too, and to scammers. A lot of it's about targeting by marketers (of products and scams and conspiracies) using tricks found to work with different groups.
