minus-square@counselwolflinkEnglish2•1 year agoA knife is convenient and accessible as well true, but it is easy to understand that swinging a knife will hurt yourself and/or others. While social media doesn’t have that, we don’t automatically identify social media as dangerous unlike swinging a knife or pointing a gun. I do understand your point that the user is still responsible in some way, I just think that knowledge of its danger be more widespread.
