On one hand, there's something to it. But on the other hand, the question arises: how long has this been around? I mean, the ideas about utopias, fantasies, and so on. In principle, since books appeared, if not earlier. Definitely earlier. People have brains, and they need more than just analyzing the real world; sometimes they just want to escape from everyday problems, dream, and contemplate. That's how books came about. Television and computer games are just a new stage. A new stage, but not necessarily a better one. If you think about it, it's clearly worse. But it's still the same phenomenon.
And regarding the corruption, yes, that's 100% true. What used to be considered a catastrophe for the honor of a normal person is now completely normal; people actively exploit each other's base instincts for selfish purposes and aren't ashamed of it at all. It's as if everything is allowed... for a certain price, of course.
