Unironically based, social media is bad for kids anyways

The social media era is going to make leaded gasoline look like a joke. Stats show that kids are now dumber, gayer, and more suicidal than they were 20 years ago. And then r-slurs will have the temerity to blame this on muh climate anxiety and not the fact you hooked every developing child up to a machine that generates neurodivergent narcissism.

That and I dislike the idea that corporations manipulate people to try to claim every minute of time they have. Being bored is good for kids because it forces them to have new ideas and seek new things. Corporations would rather they stare at ads and give up data. Obviously social media has financial interest that conflicts with human wellbeing.

A very important point which is disregarded in favour of the fun pictures and bright lights. I have experience with this, was a hardcore loser Reddit doom scroller for a long time before I deleted that. Made a positive difference on my world view very quickly lol

Yeah I became a social media conscientious objector a few years ago, deleted everything except anonymous stuff and trimmed my feeds down a lot. It's worth it. I just don't want to give up laughing at internet drama.

My theory is that internet media is used very heavily for warfare purposes, such as information, psychological and economic ops. Laughing at internet drama hopefully skirts around all that heavy stuff by refusing to take anything seriously.

I actually agree. For example, China limits TikTok use to like 40 mins a day and it's all educational/patriotic content. Look at what they let our kids watch all day, absolute brain rot material. I think that internet-savvy countries are going to be using social media as a way to hinder economies and societies by spreading bullshit around. Shit like how Russia had people arguing extremes, often against each other even, just so that onlooking Americans would have a picture of extreme division.
It can be dangerous, like my father recently has been watching what he says is the "real news" that is basically shit Chinese algos feed him on TikTok. And this is a dude who is obsessively anti government spying on MAGA people willingly letting China track his whole phone.

This is one of the major consequences of capitalism that most online leftoids don't even talk about because they can't imagine a life without being mindless consumers: being made to feel that you're supposed to be stimulated for every moment of your life.

I've noticed the people who screech about capitalism the most are the most voluntarily capitalized
Jump in the discussion.

Their solution for capitalism is basically hoping for a revolution at some point but in the meanwhile giving as much power to gov entities as possible. They sincerely believe the gov is actually separate from the corporate class so having the gov be their daddy will definitely minimize the effects of capitalism.

I figure if they managed to enforce it against the big networks (tiktok, facebook, reddit, twitter, uhhhh insta?) that would generally be plenty. Probably by requiring some kind of ID. I mean online gambling sites do it, right?

Agreed.
Realistically itβs a good thing to happen regardless because itβll probably finally accelerate some SCOTUS rulings in regards to the first amendment and social media because itβll almost certainly be blocked by some federal judge on those grounds.

The first amendment only protects you from the government, not from private companies. So whether or not Facebook gets taken down, it doesn't really matter from a first amendment perspective.

You forget how overwhelmingly obnoxious teenagers are until you have to interact with them.
I despise teachers but maybe some of their endless whining is justified by the fact that they have to deal with 16-year-olds all day.

This is a pretty solid take, logistics be darned. Sorta like how old school big family gatherings might have an "adults" table and the kids table. A shorter table with shorter legged chairs. Served and overseen by respectable adults.
Better yet, it needs to be separated somehow. Read-only scholastic access needs to be available to children/everyone but social media in general needs to be treated like a driver's license is. It is a PRIVILEGE, not a right. Children don't get to drive on public roads and require classes, tests and provisional licenses at a certain age for more access. Even then, so-called adults must stay currently licensed and insured with withdrawal or suspension of the privilege as an option. The framework is imperfect but already there.
