Well the internet may make them trans. A hard day’s work only risks killing or maiming them
The Internet makes me cum hard. Ever since Amiga 500 and dial-up modem
uh
It's always been like this. How long has it been illegal for an 18-20 year old to buy alcohol, but sending them overseas to kill is just fine.
Unpopular opinion: it's been extensively studied that addictive corporate social media like Instagram and TikTok cause developmental damage, depression, and can lead to suicide in a statistically significant proportion of young adolescents. It should be regulated just like we do with cigarettes.
Yeah, it's just that the R douchnozzles pushing it in most places also want to tack it on with secuality-related stuff, parent helicoptering and we'll trodden and failed shit ideas of social control.
Meanwhile not a single one of them will vote for internet privacy laws to slow the rape of Americans data on the daily.
Well, even a broken clock is right twice a day.
The judge's arguments in this case are bogus - minors don't have any free speech rights, or e.g. public schools wouldn't be the free speech free zones that they are - but your argument is much, much worse, because it hurts adults and minors. You want to see where your argument leads, go look at the state of porn in Louisiana.
Good.
More ways to exclude and marginalize young people is not what society needs. Social media can be a lifeline for people who otherwise cannot live authentically or get access to literally anything true any other way.
Ohio just mad the kids are making fun of them on the internet.
