      I mean yeah, but there are legit issues with social media for kids as well, especially with trash like tiktok.

      Restricting how the algorithms of social media platforms work instead of restricting the age would be much better though, but that would mean rich people earning less money. And we can’t have that right?

      …because…?

      the young ppl will receive more brainwashing overall? the kids have no experience to measure the info with? the teens make zero use of verification depth?

      na, i am sure social media causes a much bigger harm to kids as you also can see from who is getting treatment. but the hate filled steep thesis without any arguments tells me how tarded you are.

        I’m guessing the commentator is thinking about the Karens and Trumps out there, that uses these media to attack others, but often with a bigger reach and things that have much bigger implications.

          nice idea but no. you think a karen is making the decision that a certain amount of ppl hears her hatespeech? nope. it is not. it is american CEOs. none else. if you want a better place AND have social media, remove the boards and stockholders of the s&p500 from earth and there you go.

        “tarded”? Exemplary childish personal attack there.

        I think what they were referring to was the people doing the brainwashing, and general indiscriminate use of online services where they disregard consequences outside of their bubble.

        It’s a hard thing to measure, of course. But I think long-term the effort is better focused on the young indeed, and not the old farts at the end of their life.

          It is not. many univerrsities did the job and came to a conclusion. you didnt. yet you have a strong useless opinion. congrats!
