In China, you can’t exist without a smartphone, because for all existential things you have to do (paying bills, buying tickets etc.) , you are forced to use the almighty wechat app. Smartphones are a tool to manipulate and to spy on the population. It is a tool utilized by the ruling class, to control the masses. I hate the future and I hate “progress”.
Adding the word “scientific” to your point doesn’t make it more believable.
In fact, it detracts from your point by making you sound like you don’t know how to use the word.
