Oh those poor EU countries so helpless to defend themselves from media and ideas. Children are products of their environment. They weren't raised in the US. If it's American media that's "poisoned" the youth, maybe those kid's parents should pay more attention to their media diets?
It it were only that. Your country has launched a frontal assault on democracy in Europe trying to prop up fascists everywhere. Imagine how you'd fell if Von der Leyen went to rallies, campaigned and economically supported every MAGA candidate in your country. That is currently happening in Europe.
Oh please, don't give me that crap. EU countries have been dabbling in fascism at least as much as America. Viktor Orbán, Karol Nawrocki, the rise of the AfD party in Germany, Marine Le Pen’s National Rally party in France. These folks didn't come into power because of American voters, y'all voted for them. These folks aren't American they're your own homegrown fascists. The polls are from your own people not Americans. So don't scapegoat us because you can't accept the EU has a hard-on for fascism ATM.
It is bit of both. Like I said in another post, some parents are lazy and place responsibility of teaching to someone or something else (in this case, the tablet, phone or computer). Parents don't realise the kind of content their kids are consuming (I know some parents both work at the same time and couldn't look after their children).
On the one hand, social media companies are already aware of the deleterious effects their algorithms have on society, but don't give a shit because that's how they make money.
Everyone is involved raising children. As they say, it takes a village to raise a child.
