@icedquinn@blob.cat Regardless of that, Kids under 16 dont belong on social media besides that they are fucking annoying. Age validation is control but making parents do their job for once and pushing for them to understand the dangers and shit would be better, it would put the burden on the parrents not everyone else.
But i don't see that happening because its just an excuse for control at this point, they dont give a fuck about the children, Me neither i give a fuck about free internet and Kids are a major problem for that because they are used as ammo to push this BS control
@goatmeal@xaetacore i'm entirely certain more of my problems come from overbearing narcicist parents than ever came from using the internet as child. most people didn't even know i was 15 because i read books and used big words correctly.
i think the whole enforced age cohort thing is some controller scam and is actively harmful. there's not a historic precedent for it and our social fabric collapse interestingly coincides with reinforcing norms against the one room school and such.
threat navigation and mitigation skills need to be actively taught anyway. we're not doing people favors by putting them in one of asimov's robot's hugboxes forever.
@xaetacore@icedquinn don't be silly. you know I mean we need younger people to diverge from their parents and the public education system in some ways. or else we will be stuck with institutional zionism. unrestricted access to the internet has proven to be one of the most effective ways to achieve this
@goatmeal@shitposter.world@icedquinn@blob.cat And if they only use mainstream social media, which is what they will 100% do, who controls that media saint? You said it yourself they are too retarded to use the networks that are not in "their" control your just pumping up their exposure to 300%.
Kids should play outside and have minimal access to anything that can sway them to the wrong side, let kids me kids when they are old enough to understand you tell them about how the world really works yourself, its a parents job to educate them, if you let them on social media they will be educated by "them" you are playing right into their hands by doing that
@xaetacore@icedquinn kids should be on social media so they can learn the truth about israel. the nuisance is worth it. they're not bothering me anyway they are all too retarded to use fedi/nostr/irc who cares
@goatmeal@shitposter.world@icedquinn@blob.cat Besides if they are too retarded then they are even more easily swayed to the israeli so by your logic its even better they are not on the internet
