The characters here resemble children. Reading stimulates the imagination in a way video cannot. It’s a meme not a statement of absolute truth. In my country at least children are saturated with screens and reading is undervalued. It’s not a criticism of art forms, it’s a criticism of modernity, child-rearing, and content. To your statement there is higher volume of shit video content than shit literature.

I can think of plenty of shows and movies I watched as a child that stimulated my imagination possibly more than any book did.
Spend some time on a fanfiction site and get back to me on that.
