Politicians Are Using Kids As Props To Pass Terrible, Harmful Legislation. Don’t Let Them Get Away With It::Amidst all of the attention paid to last week’s Senate hearing on child safety online, it remains stunning just how little time was actually spent on how to help children online. Instead, we saw pure theatrical nonsense, with Senators insisting (falsely) that these five tech CEOs could magically stop bad things from happening to kids,…
Can people stop using politicians and simply write Republicans?
Not doing that is a huge part of the problem… Democrats are the only ones trying to stop it. Even when we have a few barely dems that are just Republicans in all but name.
Unfortunately, in this specific case, it’s a bipartisan problem. KOSA is supported by both parties and Biden and it’s awful. It’s why I’ve installed VPN software on all of my daughter’s devices.
So you’re telling me what isn’t going to happen is socialist and left leaning democrats will vote against it while every Republican and a good share of Democrats still will. While pretending like Democrats don’t actively try to fix legislation while Republicans make it worse? Meanwhile the same voters will vote in middle of the road Dems because no socialist wants to run.

Kinda looks like Republican think tank shit that gets backed by everyone because the public is too dumb not to turn against Democrats who voted against legislation that has ‘Kids’ in it.
There’s a reason why Democrats pick their battles carefully. People are fickle and socialist issues aren’t nearly as popular as the internet would have them think. If they were, Bernie would’ve been the Democratic contender lol.
Discredited yourself in one sentence, and managed to save it for last. I’m impressed!
Look up the 1994 Crime Bill. Democrats are absolutely capable of supporting bad faith stuff for the protection of children.
1994 as in three decades ago? Two generations? What’s next, corrupt Illinois governors lol?
Okay than check out SOPA and PIPA. Both of which were only stopped by massive online protests and write in campaigns. I’m not seeing whole websites running Boycott KOSA banners this time either so…
And yes both SOPA and PIPA used the “protecting children” argument.
I can keep going. This is not a partisan problem.
